Guest Respiratory Consultant Dr Asad Khan talks about Long Covid, treatments and his personal journey
Description
In this episode of the podcast I had the honour of speaking with Dr Asad Khan.
Dr Khan talks openly about his own experience of Long Covid, the treatment he has had, the gaslighting experienced, subsequent diagnosis of MCAS, POTS and pericarditis.
Dr Khan explains the treatments he has had to date and how he has had to travel to access these treatments as we are not undertaking these in the UK. This has been undertaken privately and Dr Khan acknowledges how not everyone can afford or are able to access treatments abroad.
We discuss how this impacts life, how people have lost their lives and taken their lives due to the disabling impact of Long Covid.
Dr Khan and I talk about vaccine injury, organ damage and the possibilities that appropriate research and treatment may offer.
Dr Khan offers hope for the future and advises people to try to understand and read up on their symptoms, implementing some pacing, vagal nerve stimulation, protecting the gut microbiome and other symptom management.
I hope you enjoy this episode and
