CFS Like Symptoms After COVID-19
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Article, very detailed, describing symptoms of CFS after COVID-19.

Please read!!

PS: this is tragic news but there may be a silver lining. I think since these debilitating symptoms affect a significant portion of the population and has such an intense focus WORLDWIDE by epidemiologists, virologists, etc, etc, that it MAY create more research and a treatment plan for us with identical or similar symptoms.

Please read and see the experts drawing parallels with CFS and fibromyalgia.

🙋‍♀️ @A MyFibroTeam Member ... what a great idea you have to open specialized medical centers for CFS, Fibro, COVID or any post-viral symptoms!! Brilliant!

I hope that that even small clinics and hospitals do that asap.

Truly, you have a brilliant mind Olga and I hope that someone pivotal in the medical community begins a world focus on doing just that.

And I hear your deep frustration at your 2 year wait list just to be seen for competing care in a city with 6mill population. It's mind boggling, especially considering the widespread magnitude of these conditions that have existed pre-covid and will now exponentially explode, post-covid.

My fibromyalgia and cfs all started after having pneumonia and has continued ever since! I had a full on physical job so therefore thought alot of my tiredness mild ache's and pains ect were due to that but then I had flu chest infection which led onto pneumonia and from then on after getting over the initial illness itself developed into cfs and a 2 year elimination process of a diagnosis of fibromyalgia! I never suffered any of the above until being struck down with pneumonia although was an asthma sufferer before that!

It is a great article and one that certainly sounds very familiar with its long term symptoms after initially recovering from the covid virus! Fingers crossed it gives us fibro cfs/me ect suffers some sympathy and understanding of what can be our daily chronic symptoms too!!..

Great article. Let’s hope this will prompt research and open clinics specializing into post viral chronic illness/CFS/ME. 🙏🏻🙏🏻 I’m waiting at the very least 20 months for the only clinic in our area that specializes in FMS, CFS/ME and other illnesses caused by environmental factors such as chemical or electromagnetic exposure. I live in an area with 6 mil people in the greater metropolitan area....to put it into perspective.....crazy!

Have a great day 💕🤗
