Excellent news! Harriet Carroll has entered the building! #pwME #LongCovid #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis #TeamClots #postvac #MECFS ##ChronicIllness @angryhacademic.bsky.social
Want help navigating the #longCOVID #postvac and related #chronicillness space? Want evidence, rather than be sold another protocol?
If so, I aim to help bring some clarity to things!

![Poster reading:
Do you:
Feel unsure about what is going on,& you’re struggling to find answers or make sense of things?
Want help interpreting test results, or deciding what tests to ask for?
Want help navigating evidence, not be sold another protocol?
Read so much that you are now overwhelmed & dont know where to start?
Feel abandoned or dismissed by your healthcare provider, or been told there is nothing that can be done to help?
In my own journey, I remember frantically trying to find answers & getting constantly dismissed by doctors. Looking back, I wish I had some guidance from someone. This guidance is what Long Covid Scientific Consultancy aims to provide. I hope to support you in making evidence-based decisions on your journey...

“None of [my medical team] have had the depth of knowledge & understanding that Harriet demonstrated”~Anita

One of the things that fertilises the soil is thrombosis. Tissue factor is an angiogenic factor that metastasising tumour cell probably use as a means of sticking to a tissue bed and laying down vascular roots #TeamClots

Yes, reduced exercise capacity is seen.
But that does not = deconditioning.
Same outcome, completely different biology.

Three years ago, I'd became Covid-negative and I was expecting to focus on recovery and returning to work.
Thank goodness I reached out for help!
3 years on, the after-effects are reducing and I'm getting much fitter 🙏

Physiology shows:
- Impaired oxygen utilisation
- Circulatory issues
So no, patients aren’t just “out of shape.”
Their bodies are struggling at a fundamental level.
