    Exercise(sorry I know this maybe a controversial subject)

    Does anyone here exercise regularly? I am aware that “graded exercise therapy” was more debunked as a strategy for me/cfs, but curious if anyone does exercise and how much?

    How do I recondition after being bed bound?

    Because of the pandemic, I've pretty much stayed in bed for the last year. I want to slowly start to recondition, but I don't know where to start, especially because I want to avoid PEM.

    Is there any solid research that exercise is helpful for POTS?

    The Levine protocol developed from Levine's research reported a 50% drop out rate - alarm bells much! He also claims POTS is purely from deconditioning and not a dysautonomia at all. This makes no sense given how often POTS occurs during peak physical fitness. I have no reason to trust in...
