So here's an update from Theresa from Season 1, about what her life is like nearly two years since her recovery and we last spoke with her. Theresa explains how her life is different from it was before she was sick, and how she is embracing restful practices over the 'publish or perish' toxic culture within academia.

In this episode of the Long Covid Hope Podcast, we speak with Andy, who is an IT professional and father of two young children, living in the West Midlands of the UK. Andy caught Covid in March 2020 and experienced respiratory symptoms such as extreme breathlessness and chest pain, which in time progressed into Long Covid with POTS or dysautonomia symptoms as well as post exertional malaise. Andy describes how he experienced gas lighting and a lack of help from healthcare, but found the Body Politic Slack community early on, which was pivotal in finding out about possible treatment options. He went on to radically rest away from his family for some time, as well as trying prescription medications such as a beta blocker and SSRI which helped his heart rate and dysautonomia symptoms. Andy describes his gradual reduction in symptoms and increase in activity, and how he returned back to working full time as well as taking up exercising such as kickboxing. We also discuss the chronic illness experience as a parent to young children and the difficulties and challenges around this, as well as the resilience and adaptability of children.
