So sorry to learn that you too have this awful condition Althea. I’m 4 plus years in & going downhill if I’m honest. I’m desperate to avoid another 9 month crash like I had this time last year so am currently on (self) enforced rest which I can find challenging. How are you doing?

This week I started intermittent fasting also known as time restricted eating and a lower calorie, lower carbon diet as there a good reports it can help with LC symptoms. It also won't hurt for me to lose some of the weight I've put on.

I'm doing lots to support recovery. Pacing being the biggest. I'm limited in what I can do, which I hate. However it means I don't feel so consistently dreadful.

Oh Louise, my thoughts are with you. I'm just 1 year in but I had a previous short (4 month) spell after my first covid infection in 2022. I hadn't realised that was LC as didn't get a dx but I recovered and thought no more about it.
