The rashes yes. It’s sudden itchines and pain presenting as hives which I get in reponse to overexertion.
By PEM causing them, I mean they wax and wane similarly to my other ME symptoms in response to exertion.
I personally have had both rashes and what I assume is inflammation appear ever since PEM started causing allergy like symptoms. The...
Oh wow that’s pretty cool.
God I hate that sentence. Feels very minimising when there are so many adolescents who have been bedridden for years with Post COVID.

It’s cool that they got an inn with the moderators of that community.
So basically, they are handpicking those that already believe it will work. And making them pay an enormous sum which will induce sunk cost...
Glad this is being understood. It seems much of the patient community has unfortunately assumed Long COVID must equal chronic viral infection...
this has my blood boiling considering how they’re basically putting down me losing my entire life down to “fear”.
So it’s the equivalent of asking, “if you returned to work, what did you do to improve to the point that was possible?” Which to me sends the...
