Do NOT try to exercise right now! Google "post exertional malaise." At the moment, pushing yourself could lead to long-term worsening of symptoms. Rest as much as you can for the next month or two, then gradually increase activity and see if you can tolerate it without feeling worse the following day.

You are absolutely right. For last few weeks, if I do a little too much one day, I can feel it the next day. I guess I need to nudge the throttle forward a little at a time, can't rush this. Your suggestion makes good sense.
