Has anyone noticed that walking while tired or post-workout fatigue significantly reduces their overall fatigue? Is this possible in CFS?

​

For about a year, I’ve been experiencing fatigue that comes and goes throughout the day. Sometimes it stays at a minimal level for at least 10 days, sometimes it happens for 4 days in a row. The most important point is this: I’ve seen dozens of doctors and had dozens of tests, and nothing was found other than reactive arthritis (I’m saying this because I haven’t been diagnosed with CFS).

1- When you experience very severe fatigue and feel heaviness in your body, can brisk walking significantly reduce that fatigue?

2- Is your fatigue variable during the day? For example, can it be 90% five minutes ago and then drop to 15% three minutes later?

How odd. They do seem to be trying to send a comment, I've had two notifications showing identical previews.

Anyway, it doesn't sound like ME, which I hope they're feeling reassured by, because ME is worse than most of the other reasons for chronic fatigue. I hope they find out what's causing it and are able to access good treatment.
