In February, I published a Long Covid disease tracking diary called the 'Long Covid Symptom Diary'. It was something I wanted to do for a long time, for multiple reasons. After a bit of a delay, I want to share a bit more about why I decided to create this book. 🧵 1/25.

I don't ever want anyone to have to watch their beloved pet needlessly suffer like this. If you can afford it, do visit I'm still not sure if the treatment would lead to a full remission, but if all else has failed, I think it's worth a try, at least.

So even though my cat responded well to the treatment, I couldn't continue with it, due to its high cost (~600 euros for a round of treatment of about 90 days). After this round, my cat got sicker again. I'm incredibly sad to say that he eventually passed away 3 weeks ago 💔.

However, the treatment, which is based on a component of the anti-viral drug Remdesivir, is quite expensive and not trusted or embraced by vets yet. Therefore, I had to buy it online, and give it to him without any help from my vet.

They also did not want to look at the research on post-viral illness in cats. I got desperate. Last year, I decided to try the FIP anti-viral treatment that showed great results in cats, as there were multiple published papers on it at that point. My cat perked up within 2 weeks.

For years, I've been trying to get vets to take my cat's post-viral illness seriously, which started around the time of my own first COVID infection. Aside from extra fluids and antibiotics, they wouldn't do anything for him.

Turns out cats can get a post-viral illness from a coronavirus that is similar to long COVID & causes immune exhaustion . Is anyone gaslighting these cats & telling them they are making up their symptoms?.

One additional point on the diary: The layout of the symptom tracking and health metrics pages are identical across the different languages of the diary. Because of this, if used in research studies, it's possible to include patients that speak different languages!.
