Summary

They describe ME/CFS with severe post-exertional malaise; a recent four-hour road trip left them crashed and unable to walk or eat for a few days. In December 2025 they were weighing travel for a treatment they had heard costs around $2k a session, but judged the trip too risky given how ill they are.

Their path

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.
