I know we have cognitive issues and any exertion is bad esp for severe patients like myself. Can you (esp if severe) read books ok? I find I can strangely read on my phone but my eyes hurt and my head gets overwhelmed when I try to read a book! So upset...
Also read somewhere cognitive exercises that are good for healthy people (even as simple as reading) overexert ME brains and chip away at our health...but in turn make us more likely to get MS and stuff ( we are more prone to it anyway as studies suggest)....
What to do? Upset as can’t read and can’t train the brain as it will make my condition worse but ALSO make MS and all that nastiness more likely... arghhggg
