Summary
Dove 92940 reported being bedbound throughout 2012 with recurrent infections about every two weeks, on top of CFS. By July 2015 they were no longer totally housebound or bedbound, but remained on disability and not well enough to work; routine physical or mental stress could still leave them housebound. They did not describe a treatment or say what caused the improvement.

Their words about their symptoms
- Post-exertional malaise
An amount of physical or mental stress that most people would find routine is enough to cause a serious flare up for me where I am housebound.
