Summary

A 28-year-old woman with ME/CFS went from being an active roller and ice skater at university to feeling exhausted by short walks around her area. Vitamin D tablets improved a low level but did not ease her symptoms. She also reported anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD and costochondritis, and an elevated hs-CRP that puzzled her doctors; by her latest post her symptoms had not improved and her hs-CRP was higher.
