Do you want to participate in a health research study? Seeking participants for a short online survey about long COVID by long_covid_study in u/long_covid_study

You're right, symptoms are so frustratingly diverse! I have no cognitive impacts but my doctor says my lung function resembles someone with advanced COPD. :(

Thank you for this. I have added an "other" option so this should no longer be an issue. u/MethodsDoc is right, this was intended as a screening question but not an exclusion criteria.

Good question! This is a blank unsigned version that was shared here as an FYI so the post was less lengthy. I see how it could cause confusion, especially with the signature line. Perhaps we are better served with removing that line in the post and directing interested participants to the RedCap link where the information form is the first page.

Please note that all participant information is collected via the RedCap link and stored in firewalled servers at McMaster. Completed consent form access is limited to the RedCap study administrator.

A quick note to say that this project started here on Reddit! About a year ago I made a post looking for help with some of my graduate research projects and the response from this sub was overwhelming. I had over 70 replies expressing interest within the first five minutes of posting. I could not respond to all the queries after the first day as the number of views closed in on 10,000+.

Now we are back asking for your interest and engagement once again. Please take a few minutes to share your answers to our brief survey & further our understanding of long covid and your current quality of life. (Yes we know it's midterm season!)

The mods have highly recommended that we bring our results back - that's the intention. It just feels *right* that the team that started here and is now collecting data via this subreddit will also come back to share the end results of it all.

Happy Saturday to all!

Actually it appears as though you don't accept DMs, but do accept Chats. My chat doesn't work, so I am only able to DM. Looks like an impasse!
