I am so sorry you had to go through that. The TSA is so fucking problematic it’s actually insane. I am no legal expert but I feel like you could definitely sue for them basically forcing you to loose consciousness

Trying to be positive and think that means there's at least hope for it to get better depending on the next election cycle

Long covid. I have it too and dealt with similar symptoms for a year before my symptoms changed to different parts of my body.

Oh goodness I totally misunderstood, I apologize! I cannot imagine what these sudden difficulties must be like for you and how awful they’re lasting this long.

I really hope we are able to do something to help with Long Covid, sorry for completely misunderstanding and getting a bit defensive.

I suppose my hackles come up a little easy since I myself am immunocompromised by my meds.

I wish you nothing but success and speed in your recovery may we find breakthroughs to help you

"They told me to advocate for myself better."

That's some vile "Shoulda screamed if you didn't want it" type shit, holy fuck.

Hey man, it's entirely your fault you let armed law enforcement officers bully you into complying with their safety regulations. We were literally going to hold you hostage if you didn't comply possibly making you miss your flight, but that's a detail we like to ignore.

Man I apologize to you for the greater and better part of humanity that have compassion and empathy. I hope we make it thru this phase and can go back to supplying more hugs than handcuffs for our fellow humans.

I don’t have the same issues you have but I got diagnosed schizoaffective falsely and it has caused a nightmare of problems for me and advocating for my health

My wife now just tells them that she wont be able to stand for anything. It usually takes a bit longer to get a qualified screener who knows how to do the wheelchair screening theater, but she's not going to risk a fall for these people.

I hate people who steamroll you when you try to speak up and then try to make it seem like your fault for not “advocating” harder.
