1) OMG we did it‼️‼️

In this film for #MEawarenessmonth, five medical doctors open up about living with #PAIS/#IACC conditions like ME, #longCOVID, and chronic #Lyme. It’s a format that I believe has never been shown before.

They speak candidly about their experiences

Er gaat, zie ik, weer eens een direct controversiële studie rond die uitspraken doet rondom cognitieve therapie + bewegingstherapie voor long covid.

Zonder op details van die studie etc in te willen gaan, wat mij blijft verbazen: even een 🧵 over hoe dit bij mij persoonlijk ging:

A new BMJ review claims that #LongCovid can be treated using CBT and physical exercise

As ever, the devil is in the detail

TL; DR the authors' own risk-of-bias analyses show that their own conclusion is unwarranted

(Too bad they hid the crucial deets in an online supplement!)

That BMJ review of Long Covid therapies does not show what it says it does
The BMJ have published a “living systematic review” of interventions for the management of Long Covid. It sets out to gather all relevant studies, and to comb their findings in order to see what works...

Een perspectief wat niet vaak belicht wordt: mantelzorger voor een partner met ME. Mark windt er geen doekjes om. De ziekte is slopend, hij moet minder werken en mantelzorgen kost hem al zijn energie.

Er is geen zorg voor mensen met ME. Ze kunnen niet naar de Long Covid poli's.
