Any Long Covid sufferers on here?

At 49 yrs old very healthy woman had all the Covid injections because she works in NHS management twice caught Covid but on the last injection developed heart problems and just had a pacemaker fitted.
Long Covid will for her be “no cure” that I know of for a damaged heart muscle. Good luck to anyone else suffering with it

"A new study in Science is shining a light on the continuing impact of long COVID, with research revealing further and continuing health concerns for some of the 16 million sufferers in the U.S.

Long COVID is a syndrome, or collection of symptoms, that continue or develop after an acute COVID-19 infection and can last weeks, months or years. There is no test to confirm if symptoms are related to long COVID. Some scientists suggest that long COVID is caused by overactive immune cells, but the exact cause remains unclear.

The study followed 113 patients at four different hospitals in Switzerland with mild and severe COVID-19 and found that 40 had symptoms of long COVID at six months, 22 of whom had persistent symptoms at 12 months.

Researchers looked at blood samples from the 40 who experienced long COVID symptoms, compared them to controls who were not infected with COVID-19, and found that those who had long COVID had evidence of inflammation (increased complement activity), blood cell dysregulation (hemolysis and platelet activation) and tissue injury in their blood."

The country is being gaslighted on long covid. Little focus or budget to help treatment or cure for a condition that will have huge implications for years to come on employment and the NHS.
This might be of some interest.
