Dr Benjamin Natelson, professor of neurology and director of the Pain and Fatigue Study Centre at Mount Sinai, has been studying the mechanisms, effects and management of chronic fatigue for almost half a century. In this week’s conversation he explains how he has used his knowledge to study and treat those with Long Covid. The recipient of multiple grants, his interest in the immunological and infectious causes of chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia enables him to approach Long Covid with a wealth of knowledge, looking at the vagus nerve, blood volume, exercise and sleep, as well as studying Long Covid alongside CFS without a prior Covid-19 infection, to establish the similarities and differences between the conditions.
Dr. Natelson is currently running multiple studies into chronic fatigue, alongside several into Long Covid and is looking for patients (within 50 miles of New York). To take part, please contact his lab or 001-212-844-6665.
