I remember the old days when we thought it was respiratory only. I wish.

"Before COVID, I probably saw a few people on maybe a month basis, not more than 20 a year," said Dr Hong. "I'm [now] seeing that almost on a daily basis, so the incidents have gone up tremendously, and that's part of the reason why people believe that this is a part of a post COVID syndrome."

It’s so awful. My nephew is 18 and caught covid in 2020 before vaccines. He has severe POTS which really alters his life causing emotional duress. He’s on several meds and still has a severely high heart rate.
