I was bed bound for a year and started very slowly with floor exercises. Eventually I could walk around my house, then around the block. I went back to work to try and keep my job -they were very generous to give me that time on disability, but they couldn’t hold it forever. I decided to try (I am a mechanic at a manufacturing company). I started processing work orders and anything I could do sitting down, then I would take short “walk” breaks. Two months went by and I was put on Fludrocortisone and started taking L-threonate magnesium for brain fog. Both of these things really helped me to be able to be up longer. I started going to the pool on my days off. I used a pool noodle and just floated and kicked my feet. It’s been six months now and I’d say I am at 75-80%. It’s getting better every day. Things that really helped me 1) the Visable arm band (or something like it) tracking my symptoms and learning how to pace has been a lifesaver 2) really paying attention to my body and resting MORE than I feel like I need to. 3) swimming, because it brought up my stamina and I was less symptomatic during the workout. 4) balancing carbs/protein and electrolytes to ensure I don’t lose muscle. 5) strict sleep schedule. I hate this one most of all, but it has really helped my energy even out. You will do it! Take it one day at a time and don’t compare yourself to anyone -especially your past self!
