@Tilney you said this was a possible test of meningitis and I was wondering if you have more info on that?
I just got home from 8+ hours in the ER trying to determine if I have some form of meningitis from IVIG (all doctors said I do not) but I just tried your test out of curiosity while lying flat in bed and for the life of me, I cannot raise my legs in either position (pointed toes or flat toes). If you offered me a million dollars, I cannot do it.
No doctor has ever asked me to try this and I when I just read your post, I actually thought there was a chance I could do it but it is physically as impossible as me walking on water LOL. No idea if this confirms I really do have ME/CFS or if I just have incredibly weak muscle strength which I already knew.
