Summary
Lake 82107 developed post-COVID symptoms after a COVID infection, including getting winded just from walking around their room. They took it easy during the active infection, then went back to normal exertion, which they say neither helped nor hurt the post-COVID symptoms but did help them feel normal again. It took a bit over a month and they were totally back to normal by early 2023.

Their words about each treatment
- Paxlovid · Not said
I don't think it causes rebounds, rebounds just happen with or without Paxlovid. I didn't have a rebound on it.
In context ↗ - Light exercise and returning to normal exertion · Helped
I never pushed myself beyond what I was ready for, so the light exercise I did do didn't hurt my recovery one bit.

Approaches: Exercise and activity
Their path
How ill they were on the ME/CFS severity scale, estimated from what they describe at each point, in the order they describe; they don’t give enough times to place each step. Hover or tap a point. 1 step says too little to place on the scale and is only in the table. Dates are when they posted. What the levels mean.
