When living with ME/CFS or Long COVID, even getting out of bed can feel like running a marathon.

In this episode, Haylie Pomroy sits down with Dr. David Systrom, a Harvard physician and Director of the Advanced Cardiopulmonary Exercise Lab at Brigham and Women's Hospital to talk about exercise intolerance for people with chronic illnesses and why so many patients are left without answers.

Dr. Systrom shares findings from invasive cardiopulmonary exercise testing and explains why traditional tests often miss what patients are actually experiencing. They dig into post-viral illness, mitochondrial dysfunction, dysautonomia, and the promise of clinical trials that could lead to more compassionate and targeted care.
