its called sequelae, alot of viruses can cause post-viral syndromes, long covid is the unofficial term. i believe it triggered my atopic dermatitis more early than usual.
I was chatting with someone recently with lots of long covod symptoms. They were mild but persistent for over a year. Her doctor said it’s not long covid as too mild. I was thinking to myself, isn’t everything on a spectrum. If her match, it’s covid, unless he has an alternative answer. Unless you see black and white, it’s horwes, not zebras.
I wouldn’t say it’s just long COVID there’s prejudice against. It’s a lot of the hidden disorders -ME/CFS, fibromyalgia, POTS, ehlers-danlos syndrome etc etc. I think long COVID has brought more interest and research to some of the other conditions

As always, diagnoses are simplified medical/social constructs that don’t fully capture the reality.
and it doesn’t help that there’s loads of prejudice against Long COVID in medicine.

Hahhaha. If you check my username, you might be inclined to see I agree. :)
