Summary
Developed long COVID in December 2020 and was still trying to get through it in mid-2025, with crashes back to zero after feeling they were getting somewhere. Triphala, taken for gut problems, disturbed blood pressure, worsened brain fog and left them dizzy on short walks. Avocados, soy and egg whites triggered nausea.

Their path
How ill they were on the ME/CFS severity scale, estimated from what they describe at each point, with time counted from when the illness began. Hover or tap a point. The chart starts 4.6 years after onset: the story doesn’t say how ill they were before that. 1 step says too little to place on the scale and is only in the table. Dates are when they posted. What the levels mean.
