@truwomandi I am a believe that it is all about the immune system and inflammation. I did not get the vaccine. I have never gotten a flu shot, and I have never had the flu. I have been exposed to the flu though. This is a new virus, as you know. This virus, our bodies do not know how to fight. In fact, I believe it tricks our immune systems into fighting our immune system. That sounds crazy, but I have been reading about this since I got nailed in June of 2022. I had the virus in Jan. of 2022 and then in March 2022. So, I went 3 months and I was good...then I was smacked down one morning when I woke up. It has never left. Treating the symptoms is the only thing I have found that helps. I also fast for a day or two and that seems to help some of the symptoms. If you can exercise, build muscle, without the post-exertion malaise or fatigue, do it. I really try to keep myself living one day at a time. I do what I feel like that day...I also pay for it the next. Have you had your legs checked? Pulse in your ankles? Is it joint pain? Can you do leg exercises and not have symptoms? Just curious. Thank you for posting.
