I now have an official, NHS-issue walking stick. Alongside it, I have been granted a neon sign that says "This person is incompetent."
I honestly don't mind answering questions and describing (most of) my symptoms. I believe it's important that people know what #LongCovid can do.
But if I politely refuse an offer of help, please don't repeat it. I know what I can manage better than you do, and if it looks awkward, I need to practice.
