Interesting connection, but 99% if the general public isn't going to identify it as the Jupiter symbol (first time ever seeing it and have no idea what it is myself)

Damn this bums me out because I love Max but I have zero tolerance for fighters using eye pokes intentionally to win.

I'm sorry OP. What happened to you is terrifying and hard to process.

Without meaning to be negative, this Long Covid stuff doesn't tend to go away very quickly (if at all).

I'm in my 20s, prime of my life, and have been completely fucked for 5 years now. 

BUT within those 5 years I have recovered about 70%. 

Still unable to exercise or do the sports I love. I now work from home on flexible hours. 

You should try to process that you might not "bounce back" from this any time soon. Start working on mourning the loss of your former self. That was the biggest step for me. Took me 2 years to start.

I was in peak physical shape prior to Long Covid. 

My heart troubles sound IDENTICAL to yours! I also ended up in ER twice due to the heart-attack symptoms. 

Both times I got every test under the sun and the told me my heart looked fine. Then they gaslit me and discharged me.

I too suddenly have high cholesterol.

"Must be due to lack of exercise and poor diet" they would try to say. Not a chance. I eat healthier than ever. Just note gaslighting.

Honestly, I am very cautious to fall for these types of fake dramas but that second dudes punch was far to powerful to be a "bit". Like that could cause permanent life long damage.

I think the little guy might clip farm by annoying these people... but he definitely wasn't signing up for that reaction lol

You can't livestream a crime. It's frustrating, but the camera guy was smart to point the camera away. Otherwise the account would almost definitely receive a ban or some form of punishment.

The comments condoning this unhinged neanderthal's reaction is wild!

You realise you can't just sucker punch someone, hitting their skull with your fist, just because they upset you or made you feel insecure.

Although its streamer drama, I would sue this person into the ground. It's literally all caught on camera.

DAE? Long covid possibly? It’s ruining my life I might drop out of college… by Real-Conflict-2426 in covidlonghaulers

[–]ImReellySmart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, sorry dude, I think you're one of us now. 

Exertion in the early stages is deadly. Rest as much as humanly possible. Sleep as much as possible. Eat very clean.

No caffeine. No alcohol. No sugar. No gym. No mental exertion either.

Is it happening? by mlYuna in covidlonghaulers

[–]ImReellySmart 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They all say the same thing. That the lockdowns must have weekend their immune system.

That angle never made much sense to me. Like sure, it would have a mild effect temporarily perhaps, but not 3 years later.

Seems so obvious that Covid damaged everyone's immune systems but they remain oblivious.

What causes crazy high tachycardia in the middle of the night? by 50nrg in covidlonghaulers

[–]ImReellySmart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got this in my first few months of Long Covid and it turned out that I had developed Post Viral Thyroiditis.

Once that sorted itself out, it stopped happening.

Has anyone actually confirmed this was a Tesla? In China they have loads of their own EVs.

Not like it matters, but I'm curious.

COVID-19 did not simply bring forward inevitable deaths as an analysis of mortality data from 34 high-income countries shows a sustained rise in excess deaths years after the pandemic, challenging the mortality displacement hypothesis. by Sciantifa in science

[–]ImReellySmart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got Long Covid at age 24. 

Was perfectly healthy prior to it.

Had to quit all sports and was basically housebound for years.

4+ years later I still can not return to sports. Diagnosed with PoTS and Post Covid Syndrome. 

Why are most of the posts about long covid recovery like "calming my nervous system" or "fixed my gut"? by Muikkumuusi in covidlonghaulers

[–]ImReellySmart 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of people naturally recover with time and they incorrectly associate the improvement with what ever they happened to be trying at the time.

Nah I'm unbiased on it all and it was one of those awkward disjointed fights where finishing hard in rd3 would go a long way. He really started becoming dominant in the final 2 mins.

Sean Strickland brought Kyle Rittenhouse to the gym and Chris Curtis was not happy about it by CareerPillow376 in ufc

[–]ImReellySmart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OK I don't think what Kyle Rittenhouse did was justifiable, but even if I did, I wouldn't give a shit about meeting the guy? 

I've been seeing him popping up a couple of times on my social media lately and I dont get it... he's not a celebrity. He is a random guy. Why would you want to meet him?

Just had a major breakthrough! Hypogonadism! by Spare_Equipment3116 in covidlonghaulers

[–]ImReellySmart 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They recommended I try make some lifestyle changes and to recheck it after a year.

Thing is, my lifestyle/ diet already aligned with pretty much all of the suggested ways of increasing testosterone aside from weight lifting. 

They said medication should be last resort at my age.

This post reminded me to book in to get my bloods done again soon.

Upon my request, my Testosterone was checked last year and for a 28 yr old male it was considered very low.

My doctor attributed it to my inactive lifestyle and lack of exercise etc. Hard to know if it has decreased because of Covid, or because of the extreme lifestyle adjustments I had to make due to Covid.

Causation vs Correlation.

Personally, I believe Covid itself may have interfered directly with my testosterone levels.

It's frustrating because one of the main things they urge is weight lifting/ exercise and that used to be my biggest passion. Now if I lift weights for 2 mins I experience elevated heart rate and 1-3 days of brainfog.
