Summary

Prairie 29198 had a mild/moderate case of CFS by late 2017: not bedridden but housebound, with insomnia, sensitivity to light, noise, smells and foods, and pain. Brain fog and stuttering almost disappeared after cutting sugar and refined carbs, identifying food allergies and taking choline. By mid-2018 they still felt terrible after eating, with fatigue and joint and muscle pain, though better at night.
