The Recovery Room with Jackie Baxter

Episode 03 of the Long Covid Podcast is a chat with Chiara Berardelli; former GP, now Singer Songwriter. We talk about how being ill for such a long time impacts on our mental health, frustration with certain medical professionals & society as well as the difficulty of going from being healthy and active to often housebound and isolated.

At the end of the podcast we hear a song that Chiara has written about Long Covid; "Tyrannosaurus" is her pet name of LC because the headaches were like a monster in her head. Please do check out www.chiaraberardelli.com for more of her work.

Episode 02 of the Long Covid Podcast is a bit of a personal one - my partner and I share our experiences of Covid and Long Covid over the last 17 months, coming from a lifestyle where we were very fit and active together to me having to deal with him going out without me, as well as him having to do so many things for me.

Although my Long Covid isn't as severe as some, it's a sobering lesson in what long-lasting effects the virus can have on someone young and previously very fit & completely healthy.

Introducing the Long Covid Podcast - the podcast by and for Long Covid Sufferers. 

Long Covid is estimated to affect at around 1 in 5 people infected with Covid-19. Some of these people recover within a few months, but there are many who have been suffering for well over a year.

There is currently no cure for Long Covid, and the thousands of people still ill have been searching for answers for a long time. In this podcast I hope to explore some of the problems and possible solutions, mixed with personal experience from those who know it best - the Long Haulers.
