I know! I knew no better. Discovering that I could neither do any of the physical activities I previously enjoyed nor the cognitive ones was...
On the topic of trying to isolate / understand cognitive induced PEM - I had forgotten about it but at one point I did use exercises to try to...
Nope. When I had a working brain I thoroughly enjoyed reading technical documents - it was part of my job. I can't say I'm terribly interested...
My OI is relatively mild, especially in cool weather. So let's assume I'm sitting down with my feet up & back supported to minimise that -...
Hmm. Wasn't that what convalescence was for - to help people rest and recuperate while experiencing debilitating after effects post infection?...
Riiight. What a load of old....... When I eventually sought help for my symptoms, like an idiot I was relieved to be told I had ME. I only knew...

I'll try - I may have to come back and try again, so tell me if I'm not making sense. It's where I am alert and let's say someone asks me a...
Earlier on & when less severely affected by ME, I could slowly rebuild and maintain muscle tone if I very carefully avoided aerobic exercise....
The thing with PEM is the whole of the thing is greater than the sum of it's parts. In the same way simply individually cooking & laying out all...
The M3 device arrived today. I've already had a go & it's very easy to use. Also can be configured to store readings for two different people if...
