Hope

Yesterday I saw the specialist that diagnosed me with ME/CFS. It was a follow up session to see how the new supplement regime was helping, and to see if further drugs (low dose Naltrexone) would be helpful. 

At one point, I asked a question about how people with CFS handle pregnancy and motherhood, and admitted how nervous I was about my future. 

Instead of answering my question directly, he told me that he believes I’ll either leave this illness behind entirely, or that it’ll become a smaller and smaller problem – until it’s something I manage daily in the background (much like how I’ve managed my depression for 15 years now). 

So that was nice to hear.
