The Podcast by and for Long Covid sufferers. Long Covid is estimated to affect at least 1 in 5 people infected with Covid-19. Many of these people were fit & healthy, many were successfully managing other conditions. Some people recover within a few months, but there are many who have been suffering for much much longer.

Although 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 the many things that can be done to help, through a mix of medical experts, researchers, and personal experience from those who know it best - the Long Haulers.

    125 - Peter Burt - Man Stuck on Desert Island!

    Episode 125 of the Long Covid Podcast is a chat with Peter Burt. Peter has found himself "washed up on a desert island" after floating around in the sea of Long Covid for a couple of years. We talk through a lot of fascinasting stuff, the idea of "not feeling like a man" and how difficult but extremely important it is to ask for help - and then receive it!

    This is such an honest conversation - thankyou Peter for being brave and getting in touch, and we hope that this will resonate with others who are struggling.

    124 - Dr Elizabeth So - East Asian Medicine & Acupuncture

    Episode 124 of the Long Covid Podcast is a chat with Dr Elizabeth So about East Asian Medicine. We take a deep dive into what EAM is and some of the background to it, as well as how it can help with conditions such as Long Covid - and why!

    This was such a fascinating discussion - we could have carried on for hours - and one of the biggest takeaways for me was the need to work together. That, and I've basically committed myself to trying Acupuncture now...

Best information for long covid

I’m so happy to have this resource on long covid. Great wide range of speakers & topics related to long covid. I truly look forward every week for new episodes

Long time listener unsubscribing

Having an anti vaxxer and anti masker guest on, Sarah Myhill who’s medical license has been suspended since 2023, is the kind of misinformation i avoid. So i am sadly unsubscribing after being a long time listener.

High quality and compassionate

I will most certainly be donating to this woman’s podcast. Thank you for all of the information, it has been comforting during a time, when my own physicians often do not know how to treat me.
