Summary
After glandular fever they had ME/CFS for many years, with ongoing bloating, nausea and poor appetite, and said attempts to run made things worse. Vitamin D, taken for a cough that lasted months after a cold, stopped it overnight though blood tests had never shown a deficiency. Other treatments they tried, including one at a clinic, did nothing.
