Frustrating.

I'm finding this return to a not so good patch of the CFS to be rather frustrating. We were at a point that we thought we might be almost through it. Life was starting to be lived almost normally. Rests and early nights were had by choice not necessity. Long walks were feasible. It was possible to talk in the phone for longer than twenty minutes without feeling wiped out after. But now we are back to a place were conversations need to be kept short, exercise is taken down to a minimum, rests and early nights are most definitely a necessity. It feels like such a big backwards step, maybe more of a leap. It is going to take many many small steps to return to where we were, but I am determined that slowly and surely those small steps will be taken. However long and frustrating that might be.
