so it all started when i had a bad mouth infection and had lots of mouth ulcers for about a week , and havent felt right since . i started fainting in hot environment and somtimes vomitting when i have never fainted before, i become dizzy and lightheaded for no reason and feel like i need to eat even when i have just eaten, like i have low blood suger but every time i test it when they lightheadedness is happening it is fine . i became constantly nausous and this was my only symptom for abit and then the fatigue developed where i would be walking and suddenly have a wave of fatigue and unwell feeling. it has now developed in to a more general every day fatigue but can be overwhelming . have muscle and joint aches and some shooting pains. i have ibs symptoms and i just generally feel unwell and awfull the whole time just have differnt severitys of it. i do not seem to have the PEM symptom that alot of people get, like if one day i felt ok to go for a swim i would not then feel really bad a day or couple days after i dont think. i can normally know if ita going to be a bad symptom day as soon as i wake up or it can somtimes develope in to a bad symptom day during the day. i generally feel unwell and sometimes my stomach and muscles will feel very uncomfortable .
