Dr Sol's exercise test was super easy, even though I was housebound or wheelchair bound outside of home and in bed or recliner all but a couple of hours a day at the time. No fatigue at the time and no crash afterwards. That doesn't mean that would be true for all patients. Goodness knows we don't know enough about exercise testing to insist everyone should try it.

thanks for the description of this. I didn't know what it was.

It's not the common exercise test (if there is such a thing). I hope knowing that there is a way to find AT to use for activity management will encourage more patients to ask their specialist to look into and consider this less damaging form of exercise testing.
