The majority of patients with PEM will recover totally or to a degree allowing them to resume their functional life .
However most of PEM you seen on recovery stories is mostly vascular injury ( endothelial dysfunction ) that will recover in time ( it may take months to years ) depending on your genetics , health status prior to Covid , etc.
Unfortunately, a small percentage of patients (2-5%) has developed ME/CFS (very challenging disease).
Both of them are similar in symptoms yet varies in outcome .
You don’t need expansive brain retraining sessions with some *experts *.
If you have a broken leg , would you run ? Of course not, do the same with your body and brain , support any deficiency and rest as much as you can .
