PIP assessment on Monday 9.30am. 2.5hrs! How is that ok for fatigue and brain fog based illness? I couldn’t speak by the end. Assessor wouldn’t stop despite struggle. I got off the phone & laid and sobbed for ages. Overwhelmed, broken and exhausted. Now in relapse. #LongCovid

In the UK currently 3.1 million people are suffering from long covid. Anyone of any age or health status can get long covid. Thank you to Darren for sharing his story. 🧵
Having #LongCovid or another chronic illness leads to so much loss.

I've lost so many things in my life due to this debilitating disease.

I wanted to share a few.🧵

Industrial injuries reassessment today for work acquired #LongCovid as a Nurse. The assessor spent several minutes questioning me about my postnatal depression that was completely resolved years prior to #Covid. Not only totally irrelevant, it’s gaslighting bullshit!

In deepest darkest January and contemplating the likelihood of those in power who didn’t act to safely protect us in the pandemic, and if they will ever have repercussions for their actions like those of us who died of #Covid or are disabled with #LongCovid.
