Summary
Tern 37081 developed vertigo after COVID-19 in about 2022. Vestibular physical therapy revealed their eyes were not working together, and they were sent to a neuro-ophthalmologist and are now in vision therapy. By their posts in late 2024 their dizziness was mostly gone apart from some particular triggers and their visual symptoms had improved a lot, though they said they were not back to normal.

Their path
How ill they were on the ME/CFS severity scale, estimated from what they describe at each point, with time counted from when the illness began. Hover or tap a point. The chart starts 2 years after onset: the story doesn’t say how ill they were before that. 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.
