Yikes, I’m dealing with all kinds of chronic back shit and fun new neuropathic pain that makes me feel incapable of functioning (but work that needs to be gone to), but what you’re experiencing is a revelation.

And my case is much milder than many others, incredibly. I have a good friend with an extremely similar case, but really quite a bit worse.

I hope my story is useful example for you in some way. Good luck.

Your struggles sound just so very much like a family member who ultimately was diagnosed with ME:

Have you ruled that out? Difficult since there is no official test, but it's one of those pesky diagnoses of exclusion...

Thanks, Claire. I am well aware of it, and it is not ruled out. Almost nothing CAN be ruled out.
