(Cont) half hour walk in the hall. I don’t drive which makes it hard to go to supermarket. Or Docs, etc.
And I’m 91 yrs. Old. I was a real robust 90 yr. Old. Walked 40 min. In AM. Worked lifting wts for 1 and a half hrs. And stretching on floor 20 min. Or more.
I am so discouraged by this weakness. It isn’t me

I relate to everything you've said and I'm a female who is 83 years old. I've been managing my symptoms with supplements, (mostly Amino Acids) for 5 years now. The PEM does not get better over time. For more information, please visit the free YouTube Channels of: Broken Battery and the Bateman Horne Center and the site of Gez Medinger (he's one of us).
Please don't over-do your walking...as you will discover, the doctors are not aware of our impossible task of 'exercise' and the damage it can bring.
Oh, gosh...there is so much I can say. If you can see my reply to Vostie below, you'll learn more. I'm currently experiencing a bit of a PEM crash and am fatigued with brain fog to boot.
One of the best things I do for myself is twice-daily YogaNidra sessions with Ally Boothroyd on YouTube (also free). When you visit and read some of the comments, you will see that there are A LOT of people with L.C. who are getting relief.
My best to you.
