Has anyone diagnosed ME also received a Long Covid diagnosis?

*****UPDATE****

I've received a Post-Covid 19 diagnosis that has been of no use as they wanted to refer me back to the ME/CFS fatigue clinic!

I'm currently challenging the care I'm receiving because I experienced outright denial to acknowledge and record my neuro symptoms experienced post covid - apparently because it's not clear whether ME/CFS or Covid would be the cause of it.

They did record disordered breathing patterns that cause shortness of breath. Apparently a result of the brain changing the way I normally breathe. How does anyone know if this doesn't also happen in pwME if no one checks?
