Description: Tinnitus is a common side effect in PACVS patients, and can be very bothersome in combination with other side effects. We are therefore holding another lecture on this topic, which we hope that those affected by side effects will find useful in dealing with tinnitus or other chronic problems.
In this webinar, you will learn more about tinnitus and hear about the treatment options and types of professional help available, as well as get good advice on how to learn to live with tinnitus. Martin Jensen also gives you an insight into how tinnitus affects the auditory system, and also tells you about the cause of various side effects of tinnitus.
We look forward to gaining better insight into the subject, as well as learning about practical tools that can help patients better manage tinnitus. There will be an opportunity to ask Martin questions after his presentation.
In addition to his theoretical knowledge, Martin has had tinnitus himself for a number of years, which has at times caused him great problems. However, he has found a way to a good life with tinnitus, and now one of his most important missions is to convey knowledge about treatment options and the message of hope to people whose quality of life is severely compromised by tinnitus. Martin is also the host of the podcast series “Tinnituskompasset” and works as a psychologist on a daily basis. https://www.tinnituskompasset.dk/podcast/

Description: Many vaccine-injured patients experience PEM (Post Exertional Malaise), which is a worsening of illness and symptoms that occurs as a result of physical or mental exertion. One of the possible mechanisms behind this form of activity intolerance may be mitochondrial dysfunction, which in short is a reduced performance of the energy factories in the body's cells.
We have therefore booked a lecture with Jesper Vind, who will talk about mitochondrial dysfunction and how Covid-19 infection and other viruses can affect our immune system. Jesper does not directly address vaccine injuries, but since vaccine side effects have several things in common with Covid-19 late effects, it may be interesting for those affected to learn more about this area.
Price: Free. Note: The lecture is only for members of the patient association. You can become a member here.
Registration: If you would like to hear about the possible biological mechanisms behind persistent side effects to Covid-19 vaccination, you are welcome to register for the lecture by writing to our email att: Treasurer, or by commenting “Participant” under the post on our Facebook pageIf you cannot attend the meeting or have difficulty remembering the entire lecture, you can write to us and have the presentation sent to you afterwards.
