==Presentation of illness== Young describes Browning: "though moderately active, she repeatedly complained of fatigue, especially after slightly greater exertion than usual, and resented others not appreciating how exhausted she claimed to be. In fact, after too much [[Post-exertional malaise|exertion]] or if agitated or upset, she would collapse or even faint." She also suffered from [[tachychardia]] and repeated, chronic infections.<ref name=":0" /> Other symptoms included dilated pupils, [[hyperesthesia]] of the skin of her back, temporary difficulty with [[micturition]], and weakness of a leg.<ref name="bmjweir">{{Citation| volume = 298 | issue = 6675| pages = 749| last = Weir | first = J.G. |title = The illnesses of Elizabeth Barrett Browning.| journal = BMJ : British Medical Journal| access-date = 2016-11-14 | date = 1989-03-18| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1836025/| pmid = 2496832}}</ref>
