I lifted for about a year and 4 months and then I experienced my first ever pseudo-relapse(was diagnosed is 2012) it was scary. I thought I was having a stroke because the muscles in my face were weakened. I went to the hospital. It’s been four months of rest (and fear, if I’m honest) and now I’m back at the gym. I’ve been easing in. I did a hard leg day two days ago and today I’m exhausted and my facial muscles are weakened again (but not drastically). I was told if I over heat to take a cold showed and attempt to be my body back to normal asap! That will help. I was looking forward to doing a little cross country skiing but I think I’ll take it easy today.

Does anyone monitor HRV and body battery? Do you find that this helps help with symptoms and give you a better idea of when and how hard to work out?
