Summary
Under Dr. Chia's care for suspected enterovirus, .jm. built up to running 40 miles/week by an April 2021 update (up from an initial "REMISSION!" post 18 months earlier), with insomnia and Raynaud's resolved, while tapering oxymatrine down to a maintenance dose of 2 pills/day. The gains are reported as sustained across that 18-month follow-up window, though still tied to ongoing (reduced) medication and a restrictive diet rather than being drug-free.
