ME/CFS after Coccidioidomycosis (Valley Fever)
After a bout with Valley Fever in 2008, I have been experiencing many of the post-symptoms of ME/CFS.
In 2008 I developed a cough that was activated by my attempts to speak, pneumonia, hives the size of a human hand on the inside of my thighs, FINALLY my doctor decided to test me for Coccidioidomycosis.
Upon further examination it was found that the fungus had created several (3] holes in my lungs.
For the next two years, I had CT scans every 6 months to ensure the fungus had not spread.
As the years passed, I continued to experience brain fog, low orthostatic tolerance, poor sleep, inability to focus, low energy levels.
ME/CFS has stolen the life I once knew.
