Is this ME/CFS?

Oh, for sure, you could have Lyme for example.

What were the exact medications that you took?

Are you sure you don't have an infection? This all sounds like an infection that's undiagnosed?

The reason is because there's only started one year ago. It's not normal.

It's possible your nervous system is all screwed up from chronic stress and you induced some kind of autoimmune disease, but it's rare for it to happen in only one year. 

 

Already checked out Lyme. 

Medications are interesting because there were multiple strong agents on my nervous system for months. After a heavy car crash in 2023 and subsequent poly trauma, I did take different opiods (general pain) and pregabalin (nerve pain) for almost 2 years. The CFS did start when I was in the final withdrawal phase of all that. So my guess was I was just fatigued from that. 

I also startet a treatment with Ritalin in that time period, which I also suspect to have stressed my nervous system to a good extend. If I was just listening on my gut, I would say it was the Pregabalin withdrawal or the Ritalin that caused my nervous system to fall into CFS. Very unscientific though. Could be something else all along.

And yeah, No infection, for many months before the CFS started. And even now, all infection bio-markers are silent. 

Auto-immune is what I largely expect to be the cause as well. But with no good test or screening to see what exactly is off. Maybe also just neurological. Or both.

@Vynce use AI deep search to find people who got CFS after opiod and pregabalin use. Tell it the specific drugs you took and find people who got CFS from it. See exactly how they went through this.
