I am so sorry, try and rest, really rest, until it subsides, I hope that won't be too long, and then take it as easy as you can.

hi and thanks..i will still fight,but in diferrent way,till now i just fight the reality.No more of that, i'm done experimenting and testing my body wich is obviously sick..i will run again when my body will tell me he can ,now it's the last thing he wants..but that day will come again@notmyself I'm saddened by you being so sick from that darn run!!
Yet I am glad that you seem to have learned alot by it.
I fought the hard fight for a long time but didn't know what I was fighting.
So I can relate to some relief in knowing what's wrong.
I didn't find PR until almost a year after I had to stop working plus many other things. So glad you have found PR.
Anytime you need advice, encouragement, education and more you at least have people here that can relate, forums to learn, even laughs shared.
Hope you recover from this PEM. Take good care of yourself.
I actually was thinking about you this morning wondering how you were doing. I know how the delay in symptoms can hit and there was your post!!
Keep the faith @notmyself , and that positivity you have in you.
@notmyself , careful. To me you sound a bit too optimistic. You got to go to the store. That would normally be a big deal for most of us.
I hope you do reach a goal of being active with mild ME. You described being very sick and your ready to run again.
I'm not ready to run again,absolutely not..but one day i will.going to the shop was a must,cause i am alone in the house,and i need to eat something.Call me a dreamer,delusionate or something but i feel i can recover,i will repeat this in my head as a mantra..wihtout this hope i can't move forward
you don't offend me at all! thanks for caring..what about you?..how are you feeling?@notmyself ,I hear you. You're right to stay positive and have hope!!
So sorry if I worded something to offend you. Never meant to.
Hope, positive thinking, moving forward with recovery, I respect you for all of them!!
It's how I get through everyday! I read your post wrong, I thought you were saying you were ready to run now.
yep..i'm done experimenting..i would have probably been better without them.At least you have an answer, @notmyself -- please don't "test" this again!
It is not uncommon to experience PEM 24 or 48 hours after the initial insult. Be more careful from now on, and don't push like this.
