Suggest Remedy For Pain And Fatigue Due To Ross River Virus

I contracted Ross River Virus almost 4 years ago which was very severe. After 20 months I had surgery for ovarian cysts caused by the RRV according to specialists in Sydney, Australia. After that I crashed with pain and fatigue. For two years I have been achy and fatigued but able to care for myself just. Recently I had a local anaesthetic fo large plantar wart and have totally crashed (may have nothing to do with the local but a possiblity?) and the pain is extreme. I can t dress myself, clean teeth etc. What to do? Tried prednisone last week for 5 days -10 to 25mg - with no huge effect but reluctant to try again lest it interfere with my lingering RRV / fatigue syndrome which exists. I know many people have long term RRV effects for years but this latest lapse is impossible. Thanks, Sue

HI
Well come to HCM
The symptoms and the history given here are not at all related with each other neither the treatment, in my opinion you need to just increase your will power and forget about the fatigue because some functional problem might be playing role behind this, and this is nothing to worry just low down your stress level and every thing would be fine soon, hope this helps.
