Summary
Posting in an ME/CFS forum in 2025 and 2026, this person called themselves moderate-severe, previously more severe, and said they spend so much time in bed that using IKEA Alex drawers or a small dresser as a bedside table changed their life and not having to get out of bed for essentials was a game changer. They use a refurbished pair of QC35II headphones, replacing the ear pads every ~1.5 years with an off-brand soft mesh type for $15-20. No onset, treatment or overall recovery is described.
