Bushwacked – +1 for M.E. here: got it after glandular fever :/
It’s taken me years to get back to any kind of normality – I can’t really say any more than what Timmo and Spikester have already said, except that you’re definitely not alone with this. You’ll be suprised actually how many people come out of the woodwork to say “me too” – something which gave me massive support during the early days when I thought it was “just me”.
It’s still early days for you yet after just a couple of months, and you might recover quicker than the more unfortunate ones like us, but you will need to *listen* to your body. I was doing night shifts at the time when I had the initial illness and I swear that made it exponentially worse.
My particular illness would come in waves (and indeed it still does to an extent), it would be a month of being ill, 2 weeks of starting to feel better then straight into being ill – rinse/repeat for 4 years.
Gradually the cycles became less and less severe til today where they are managable.
It really does play some funny games with your body, some of the symptoms are really quite bizarre. I’m not going to go in to detail here, but if need to talk to anyone about it, I really don’t mind you getting in contact – likewise, I found it really useful to talk to other sufferers in the earlier stages.
