Long Covid Summit - Three Top Consultants, Your Questions Answered!
In this honest and uplifting episode from the YouTube archive, I’m joined by three brilliant consultants — Dr Boon Lim, Dr Deepak Ravindran, and Dr Melanie Danni — for an in-depth conversation answering some of the most pressing questions from the Long Covid community. Drawing on their unique expertise in cardiology, pain medicine, general adult medicine and autonomic dysfunction, our panel tackle the real challenges people with Long Covid face: living with uncertainty, the long wait for answers, and the frustration of not finding a single solution. We explore how clinics are responding, why symptoms can vary so much, and what you can actually do now — while waiting for appointments, referrals, or that elusive silver bullet. The doctors share the patterns they’re seeing, the practical steps you can take to regain some control, and ways to approach your recovery with kindness, patience and agency. There’s open discussion around commonly raised issues: getting a diagnosis for dysautonomia or POTS, what to do about research headlines like microclotting, and how to talk to your GP or specialist when they might not have all the answers yet. We also dive into the emotional toll of Long Covid, the powerful role of patient voices, and the importance of pacing, acceptance and holistic approaches. You’ll come away with concrete tips for preparing for your clinic appointments, supporting your own healing, and building hope — wherever you are in your recovery. If you, or someone you love, are struggling to make sense of Long Covid, this episode will help you feel seen, supported and less alone.
