Was RN for 39 yrs when after resp illness in 2016 had all sx of LC couldn't work or even drive, was told all the discounting things you can imagine, had neuro dx given and taken muscle biopsies, breathing was less effective so had to use biipap and O2 at night, lived on $650/mo from savings til finally got SSDI in 2020 after had covid and things got even WORSE. Couldn't talk on phone,walk more than 1.5 lots from door and back, getting dressed was twice a wk, got trapped in tshirt trying to pull it off. MD simply said buy bigger size. Was terrified was going to die and son who is on spectrum wouldn't do the right thing. Son was also dealing with LC while going back to work and worrying he would kill me bringing something else home. We haven't spoken for 3 yrs now. I am doing better with Mestinon though no antibodies so withheld diagnosis. I can now breathe 20% better, walk 22 lots, lift gallon jug, shower AND go somewhere that day and haven't fallen in 19 mos. You are so right about the toxicity of nursing culture and the ageism is more fierce than you can imagine and pay rate tops out at 25yrs. It totally sucks. If a kid is reading this and it applies to your parent, stop and think, understand terror of losing career, health, financial stability and a free floating terror is incredibly overwhelming. Forgive and love us.

I have seen them and spoke with people who used them but it's not a cure. if your mind and thoughts are stressing you out, when you stop using the machine your nervous system will begin to activate. For sustainable healing you need to work on the hardest part of this, your mind, your beliefs and then the Polyvagal exercises will work.

@@Roberto-Escobar bth, I am not a person who feel like being stressed out, I don't think I'm type A or any type... I don't think that it's what causing me to struggle from longcovid. I have neuropathy, fibromyalgia, dysautonomia I'm 100% sure that it is caused by nerve damage just like people lose their smell and taste (nerve damage in upper nose) it is very much a mechanical issue, a damage to the nerve system more than any approach that you can put on top of that. I do not think that an approach will 'cure' it, it may just affect it... I have difficulty swallowing, pins and needles. sometimes when I am with friends or mildly exercising so maybe when you force the system to be de-stressed completely it has an effect to it but the damage is still there and I feel all the debilitating symptoms no matter what I do they take their spot again after a completely de-stressed moment. I do think that it is mechanical more than emotional.
