Summary
Tern 85787 walked the dog daily and found light exercise helpful, though more activity wore them down. In a September 2022 post they said a recent spin-bike attempt that was too hard, too soon brought a two-week crash. In February 2024 they said they'd had a couple of 'these' with a CPAP machine, got excited, then never had any again, which they found depressing. Onset and illness duration were not reported.
