Does anybody else think it is messed up that "Long Covid" is getting recognized as a disability, while there are several invisible illnesses that have been around longer than Covid but have yet to be seen?

      I didn't know that. After trying for four years and having 3 appeals, I gave up. They want you to go to the doctor regularly but I'm too tired to even do that, yet they think I can work 40 hrs a week. So frustrating.

      It’s also frustrating how throughout the course of the pandemic our symptoms have been passed off as COVID or Long COVID…………. even when some of us have never had Covid😑

      Definitely not fair. Especially cause most of us have had to prove our pain. Smh.

      Its definitely frustrating. I wish it was fair across the board. Unfortunately I don't think things are ever really fair in the medical world.
