Summary
A woman with ME/CFS blamed her illness on things such as indoor smoking, mouldy homes, antibiotics and dental braces. She used a hand-grip strength device and trainer from her bed and found no correlation with PEM. She ate a paleo diet for three years and lost weight on it, then stopped after losing motivation, saying she had hoped to get obese enough to die of a diabetic coma.

I bought one of those devices that test your strenght on amazon, and a tool to help strenghten it, because I thought maybe it could improve something overall?
