Does anyone know of any research on the course of symptoms over time? Or, absent that, does anyone have any informed opinions about how ME/CFS plays out over time?
Obviously, there is no cure yet; and, as everyone knows, there seem to be so many different types of symptoms, treatments, etc. - all of which could produce individual effects. However, are there any general trends over time?
To personalize this...I had been getting weaker after my cancer treatment over 4 years ago, but then, this past March, I got some kind of virus, ended up in the ER twice, and live each day like I have the flu: bad bilateral joint pain, daily exhaustion, daily stomach issues, and horrible sleep.
I am wondering: what do other people go through who have had this a lot longer? Did they get worse, better, stay the same?
Thanks,
Matt
