I have started a Starter Pack for ME and Long COVID. 💙

It includes some mutuals with other packs but also some new faces too. :)

Please let me know if you want to be added. I know I still have about a million wonderful people to add. 💙

In thought & linking the NO/ONOO cycle with known impacts of 🔁inflammation on mitochondria ATP, NMDA, HPA, Thyroid, Cortisol hypotheses, makes for a sobering (rudimentary) understanding of how serious this is for us. Really 😡 at the downplay o#MEME
