When normal people run out to the mailbox, they get winded for 45 seconds. I get all the symptoms below for 2-3 days. #mecfs #longcovid

Also, one thing I wish could be better explained is insomnia. I always thought it was just not getting sleepy. But for me it's nightmares every night, body twitching refusing to relax and waking every hour along with inability to fall into sleep. Waking fully awake. No space between awake and rem.

I've had this for 8 months now, it's worse when I'm in a crash for PEM but even at baseline it's there, albeit reduced. I dread going to sleep now because I have to prep for whatever nightmare will come.
