Summary

Osprey 72115 described having CFS in 2019, unable to work but not bedridden, and mentioned stomach problems for which lansoprazole over several years did not help. They had gone on the depo injection years earlier, which stopped their periods, and had developed CFS only after that. In January 2020 they said they did five minutes of yoga a day, which was enough for them.
