Hi there,
Does anyone on here have, or know anything about, CFS?
I went to the gym for the first time in a while (as we all know, exercise is great for your well being! I did half an hour on the treadmill) but it did the opposite of make me feel better. I was OK immediately afterwards and went to see a friend for dinner afterwards and went to bed pretty tired.
The next day however I woke up with a really sore throat, headache, in a lot of pain in muscles, really sweaty and feverish - basically symptoms really like the last time I had flu. It got worse as the day progressed to the point where I could hardly sleep last night due to sweating so much and having the symptoms of fever.
Today I am a little better. No feverish symptoms, just a bit drained. Its clear that I DON'T have any kind of fever / flu or cold.
I googled and CFS is the thing that comes up most consistently. I am pretty exhausted pretty much constantly, and have been "ill" for about a year. My doctor has mentioned it as a possibility but there aren't really any tests for it.
I was just wondering if anyone gets this after exercise, or if anyone has any experience of CFS?
Thanks,
Gareth
