Mom, wife, web developer, artist. Chronically ill with #LongCovid / #POTS / #MECFS . I make custom armbands for the Visible app which is a lifesaver for me.

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a dual-antibody treatment that remains effective against ALL SARS-CoV-2 variants by targeting a less-mutable part of the virus. This breakthrough could lead to longer-lasting therapies that OUTPACE viral evolution. 🧪🧵⬇️

Them: But there’s no biomarker for #LongCovid, no wonder many people don’t believe it
Me: You get migraines right?
Them: Yes
Me: What blood test did you have to diagnose them?
Them: I didn’t, I get strange flashes so I know I’m getting 1
Me: So they were diagnosed on symptoms alone?
Them: Yes

Absolutely this 👏 #mecfs #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis
When you’re chronically ill - your baseline is everything. You will protect it at all costs.
Non disabled people can’t understand how much independence and autonomy means to us. Whatever small amount we have left - is priceless.
That’s why we don’t take necessary risks. We know what’s at stake.
