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.

On this episode of the podcast I am grateful to welcome guest Dr Sarah Glynne.
Many of you have contacted me regarding hormones and the peri menopause/menopause, asking if this is a subject I could cover along with an expert, so I am positive this is going to be a useful and interesting podcast to many of you.
Dr Glynne and I discuss the link between covid 19 and hormone imbalance, we talk about the disruption in menstrual cycle and the onset of peri menopause and the menopause. The potential treatment and how this can elevate symptoms, Dr Glynne acknowledges the blurred lines between some of the symptoms of Long Covid and hormone imbalance however we discuss how any symptom relief is important and should be explored.
Dr Glynne tackles the myths around HRT and the dated and misrepresented information on the use and risks of HRT.
We discuss the menstrual cycle and disruption in cycle to females of all ages and what treatment options may be suitable.
This is an informative and interesting episode which holds value to patients, healthcare professionals and anyone with an interest in hormone imbalance and covid 19/Long Covid.
I hope you enjoy this episode of the podcast and as always take care.
