Indeed, a subset of people with post-acute infectious syndromes, including #MECFS and #LongCovid, do recover, but others don't. The heterogeneity of these complex syndromes is not rooted in one's thoughts, but in one's pathophysiology. A number of #MS patients lead a fully functional, minimally symptomatic life while many others with MS are very disabled and symptomatic. Here is the info from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention - no ME activists there. What is needed for people to get better is not psychotherapy; what is needed are effective therapies like we have for MS. cdc.gov/long-covid/liv…

@dysclinic People can recover from #mecfs #longcovid but being told it is a permanent medical condition by activist organisations like the MEA impairs or blocks recovery. MEA peddle chronicity rhetoric and this does harm

@McAlpineLabYale I maybe in the wrong place but at this point I have nothing to lose. After years of documented health issues by numerous doctors & hospitals due to autonomic dysfunction I waited almost two years to get into the Hopkins POTS clinic. I went to the doctor 3 times. 1- She blew me off though she may have ordered blood work. 2- I begged for tests (she ordered 5). 3-without benefit of all test results she said "I have never seen this happen before" & "I don't know what else to do". After numerous other ridiculous events I called patient relations. Yesterday I received a letter that basically said they have done all they can do (5 tests that's it?) and offered to help me get an appointment with psych. Any shot you feel like helping me get a little bit of my life back?

@McAlpineLabYale I hope that your previous approach that seemed to support the "preferential energy expenditure" idea has changed, Dr. McAlpine.

@dysclinic As a prescriber, the biggest barrier to use is getting it approved by insurances (!!)

This false narrative is quite pervasive among clinicians. We are trying to change that! #POTS, #MECFS and #LongCovid can be very disabling, and patients with these conditions need to have a fair and equitable access to immunotherapies. #MedTwitter #NeuroTwitter

@dysclinic What would you say to your colleagues that think POTS isn’t serious enough for IVIG treatments?! In particular public hospital physicians that laugh at patients and say they’d never waste IVIG on us, they keep it for “serious illnesses”!
