Summary

Pebble 29258 had suffered from chronic fatigue for years after a viral infection and also had monthly migraines. They were on Vyvanse for over three years, which helped but was losing effect, along with supplements and birth control. In August 2020 they suspected dehydration, drank more water and felt better that day, but also wrote that water alone did not help them.
