it is said that viruses can kick off Chronic Fatigue- and I’m not sure- but I think that is what happened with me some 30 years ago-
Your dizziness can confusion may very well be “Brain Fog” which can get so bad as to be pretty debilitating mentally- Brain Fog goes with Chronic fatigue
There is something called PEM (Post Exertional Malaise) that goes with Chronic Fatigue-= You’ll know you have it if you can do something like maybe rake a small yard even though you are weak, and feel not to bad the next day, but then wham- the third day get hit with overwhelming exhaustion and weakness- if that keeps happening to you- than that may be the cause- IF you do experience that- then a life of pacing yourself will be in order- learning to say no to others because it will take too much out of you- knowing when to stop something before you pay the price 2 days later-
Chronic Fatigue is no joke- it sucks! As someone with it said once “The Good news is that it won’t kill you... The bad news is that it won’t kill you”
Sorry you are going through it- IF it is what i have, God has allowed me to have 30 years of it so far- I don’t know if that is what i have or not- Docs don’t either- but the symptom,s of PEM are spot on-
I have experienced PEM as well, several times. I have to limit myself to about two hours to go grocery shopping because if I go longer than that, I’m in bed for the next 3-4 hours resting. Once last year I took a 5 hour trip back and forth to my daughter’s place and afterwards spent the next two days in bed. So yeah, PEM sucks. Sounds like I have another kindred spirit out there in Freeper land.
