I have had symptoms for 5 months now and there is no sign of it going away so far. I've had a cough and sore throat for 3 months and have been getting bad headaches with blurred vision. I am exhausted wanting to sleep all the time which is impossible with two small children and two jobs. Thankfully I have a supportive husband who is willing to help out from time to time. I feel I was lucky in a way that I was only just diagnosed so that through the rough times I thought I was going mad and just got on with it instead of feeling sorry for myself.I am staying positive I probably wont have it for much longer. Let's hope anyway.

    Are you taking anything for it? I am taking pro biotics for the last 6months and I finally started to feel better about 2months ago. I also gave up gluten and dairy and the night sweats and fatigue went away and some of my tummy issues but still feel very achy with muscle pain etc. I try to get a full night sleep every night and occasionally I could sleep 10-12hours lol once my kids are in bed but rest is important!

    It's horrible to feel so burnt out all the time 😔 I'm doing acupuncture right now. She believes in Chinese medicine and I do think it's helping me. I've another 4sessions to do (6total) but I would do anything now to get my life/energy back!
