Summary
Nightjar 19900 has ME/CFS and treats symptoms, saying only pacing may bring remission. A non-selective beta blocker had the biggest effect, preventing heart-rate problems and migraines; magnesium for cramps and plant bitters for digestion also help, while artemisia and CoQ10 had little noticeable effect. Trips abroad to visit family, while working long days, can be kept up for about two weeks before it wears off and they rest heavily, and a robot vacuum has improved their quality of life.

They say too little about how ill they were at each step to draw it on the severity scale, so the steps are listed as they describe them. Dates are when they posted.
