Summary
Posts in an ME/CFS forum without describing their onset or how severe their illness is. They were vegetarian then vegan for years but found they felt weaker without any meat, and avoid all gluten as they feel worse when they eat it. Foam earplugs were painful for their ears; they now alternate moldable and tree-shaped silicone earplugs, which hurt less, though the tree-shaped ones still sometimes hurt.
