    Back in April the ME Association (MEA) became aware of an increasing number of people who had been ill with COVID-19 and were not improving, even after several weeks. Almost all had been self-managed at home with an illness that mostly varied from mild to moderate in severity, but not requiring hospital admission. Most had debilitating fatigue, sometimes with continuing COVID-19 symptoms involving the lungs or heart in particular. Some had symptoms that are more consistent with the sort of post viral fatigue syndromes that may precede ME/ CFS. Five months on and we are now in a situation where some people are being given a diagnosis, or a possible diagnosis, of post COVID-19 ME/CFS. Back in April the ME Association produced an MEA guide to post COVID fatigue and post COVID fatigue syndromes. This information and guidance has now been fully updated to cover all the developments that have occurred since then.

    The results of this study, published in the Journal of Translational Medicine, confirm previous work that demonstrated an abnormal response to exercise in fatigued ME/CFS patients.

    A significant number of people, who may or may not have been acutely unwell with COVID-19, are experiencing a prolonged and debilitating recovery at home. Symptoms and experiences of care seem to vary greatly among this group, sometimes known as the COVID-19 ‘long-haulers’. Many are finding comfort and reassurance through online communities, set up by and designed for patients who are struggling to get back on their feet.

    Rehabilitation is fast becoming the new priority in dealing with the impact of this pandemic and is crucial for people recovering from COVID-19 infection.The Royal College of Occupational Therapists (RCOT) have published three guides to support people to manage post-viral fatigue and conserve their energy as they recover from COVID-19. These guides are endorsed by the Intensive Care Society.Practical advice for people who have been treated in hospitalPractical advice for people who have recovered at home’Practical advice for people during and after having COVID-19.You can download the guides via the link below.

    Some degree of post-viral fatigue (PVF) or debility is a fairly common occurrence after any type of viral infection.Fortunately, in most cases, this is short lived and there is a steady return to normal health over a period of a few weeks.However, in some cases, a full return to normal health takes months rather than weeks.Additional symptoms may also develop, where the term post-viral fatigue syndrome (PVFS) may be a more appropriate diagnosis. The situation with persisting fatigue following COVID-19 infection appears to be rather more complicated than what happens with other viral illnesses.
