Living with Long covid
This podcast aims to raise awareness of long covid, provide a platform of support, education and the lived experience.My name is Julie, I am a registered nurse in the UK. I became unwell with Covid in May 2020 while working on the front line, during the first wave of the pandemic. Subsequently I live with long covid and POTS ( postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome). I would like to share my journey and lived experience, the symptoms and how each impacts daily life. I aim to not only consider the physical issues but also the impact this has had mentally and emotionally. It is reported over 2 million people in the UK and an estimated 65 million worldwide, live with long covid. This is huge, and affects every area of a persons life, their family, friendships and work life. Join me and some great guests and let’s Learn, advocate and continue this journey together.
Living with Long covid
Four years later!
In this episode of the podcast, I talk about reaching the 4 year mark of living with Long Covid.
I don't like to acknowledge this as an anniversary but I wanted to acknowledge the time that has passed, and what I have learnt along the way. It is strange how 4 years is such a long time, and in one way it has felt like the longest time ever! and the other has me questioning 'where have those years gone?'
This is a reflection of the last 4 years and I wanted to acknowledge that, and the impact it has had/has on those we love the most. I think it's important to consider how much life has changed and how hard that is sometimes, but I also wanted to acknowledge how much we learn, and evolve, the resilience and hope.
I hope you enjoy this episode of the podcast; please feel free to contact me if you would like me to discuss a particular topic or if you would like to be a guest on the podcast.
Take care, see you on the next podcast #onedayatatime.
