Living with Long covid
This podcast aims to raise awareness of long covid, provide a platform of support, education and the lived experience.My name is Julie, I am a registered nurse in the UK. I became unwell with Covid in May 2020 while working on the front line, during the first wave of the pandemic. Subsequently I live with long covid and POTS ( postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome). I would like to share my journey and lived experience, the symptoms and how each impacts daily life. I aim to not only consider the physical issues but also the impact this has had mentally and emotionally. It is reported over 2 million people in the UK and an estimated 65 million worldwide, live with long covid. This is huge, and affects every area of a persons life, their family, friendships and work life. Join me and some great guests and let’s Learn, advocate and continue this journey together.
Living with Long covid
Guest Harry Leeming; the Visible App, long covid, chronic conditions and much more
On this episode of the podcast, I had the pleasure of talking with the founder and CEO of The Visible App, Harry Leeming.
If you haven’t downloaded the app the link is below, after listening to the podcast I am sure you will want to have this useful tool. Harry explains the app, how it monitors the HRV (heart rate variability) and HR (heart rate) along with self reported information. The app can then provide information and a pattern which can support you to understand when the body is at baseline, under stress or at risk of being under stress, which is a great tool for identifying potential crashes/relapse. Allowing the user to adapt, pace and try to avoid crashes/relapse.
Harry explains the app is constantly being improved and added to and gives an insight into the future of Visible. Which is exciting, you will definitely want to hear the future plans.
Harry also shares his own journey with long covid and how this led to the development of the App.
I hope you enjoy this episode and as always take care. See you on the next podcast.
