Long Covid represents a loosely defined collection of symptoms that occur after an incident of symptomatic or asymptomatic COVID-19 infection, and clear diagnostic criteria are still being developed (as of April 2021). Patients report being dismissed or ignored by their healthcare providers, and definitive treatments remain elusive. We review the latest research to shed light on our evolving understanding of this new and prevalent syndrome.
IBS is diagnosed by symptoms in the GI tract, but there is substantial evidence to indicate that illness has manifestations all over the body. We are mining knowledge from Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) & Ayurvedic medicine to create a catalog of symptoms known to occur with IBS.
As we journey through life, how can we better understand the patterns of our actions & responses, our thoughts & beliefs, to improve our mental health? Anxiety and depression are not standalone diagnoses: these are symptoms of a larger syndrome.
At Syndromic, I am working on synthesizing & disseminating methods for improving mental health.
