Summary
Cardinal 86066 has ME/CFS with crashes of extreme fatigue, frequent mild headaches and naps that leave them more tired. A two-week pounding headache in June 2023 did not respond to Tylenol or water. Weekly vitamin infusions helped a bit in mid-2023, leaving them less fatigued for a few weeks. In November 2024 they still felt like a zombie despite heavy espresso use, and after more than a month on Ozempic their fatigue and sugar cravings were much worse.
