Yep. I've had ME/CFS since 1990.

It seemed pretty obvious to me that the pandemic would increase the number of ME/CFS cases but it's nice to have some numbers to back that up.

I think that if ME/CFS had been more widely known before the pandemic started then the term Long Covid might not have been invented. I realize that not all Long Covid cases meet the ME/CFS diagnostic criteria but many of them do.
