A treatment that helps me tremendously
- Condition
- ME/CFS
- At worst
- Severe (mostly bedbound)
- Ill for
- 10 years
- Published
- Mar 2022
Summary
Ill since 2012, this poster built daily direct sun exposure from five minutes to several hours a day over a few years, alongside high-dose vitamin D3. In summer he can do housework, see friends, sail and garden, going from roughly thirty per cent to over fifty per cent of functional capacity. The gain is explicitly seasonal: post-exertional malaise and brain fog return each autumn and winter as sun exposure drops, so the improvement resets and rebuilds yearly.
