Interesting, I had high ESR in the early years when I was less severe, now it's always normal but other inflammatory markers still fluctuate with symptom severity but not enough to be useful diagnostically apparently, so they are usually handwaved away.

I'm similar to you @Kitty except my sleep time fairly regularly starts ~1am and I find that extra hour in the late afternoon while you are on the same time as others makes a big difference. I mostly don't function well enough for interactions until after 3pm and most carer organizations and...
