Life with Long Covid

16: "Are you still tired?"


Listen Later

Can long COVID turn your life upside down? For me, Paul, it certainly did. Join me as I recount my deeply personal and ongoing battle with long COVID, an invisible illness that has forced me to retire prematurely from my role as a vicar. I recorded this on my retirement day, at the age of 52. 

Through the lens of my daily struggles with chronic fatigue, discover practical tips that have been pivotal in my symptom management. I discuss the critical role of antihistamines, the importance of pacing your life according to your energy levels, and the benefits of using mobility aids. Hear about strategies like alternating between rest and small tasks, which can help you maintain a sustainable rhythm. This episode is not just about my journey, but also aims to build a community of solidarity and understanding for everyone grappling with this condition. Tune in, and learn how sharing personal experiences can foster mutual support and resilience.
