@thejumbles Oh Julia, I'm sorry you are dealing with this. I know all too well that devastation of long covid complications. Have a follow of @edyong209 at The Atlantic; he's written a lot (and provides audio versions of his articles) about brain fog and C19.

Does anyone have any advice regarding how to overcome Covid brain fog? I just want to do my job properly, but it’s like my ADHD got cranked up to eleven and my brain is permanently dialed to No 😭

Semi annual reminder that being a parent is hard. It's wonderful too, but also very hard.

🚨I wrote about ME/CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome). The US has millions of people with it & maybe two dozen docs who specialize in it.
This medical crisis needs urgent attention, esp. now COVID has hugely increased the number of long-haulers. 1/

@BrianLehrer @edyong209 @WNYC Thank you for this segment and how it pertains to LC. My husband caught C19 in March '20 (at the hospital when our daughter was born) and has suffered since, esp with PEM. He has been gaslit by doctors and has finally found an advocate with a clinic after 2.5 years of hell.

Live NOW: @edyong209 is here to talk about what 'brain fog' is, and what it isn't. Plus, at this stage in the pandemic, what treatment strategies have been working for those afflicted? Listeners, how have YOU been managing your brain fog? 212-433-9692
