What alternative treatments worked for you

I have me/cfs and it’s been gradually getting worse for about a year but I’ve been ignoring it because I was still able to function except now I really can’t function!

I’ve seen some people take electrolytes and I was wondering what other things along the same lines has worked for people

I’m willing to try anything really as long as I can access it in the uk without a prescription.

Symptoms include.
Severe fatigue and PEM
Headaches (not sure if they’ve got to the point they would be classed as migraines)
Randomly going really hot especially if I’ve exerted myself
Brain fog
Leg weakness
Some dizziness when I stand

Give me your most unhinged chronic illness hacks!

Help trying to work out if I yarn over or yarn under?

So a bit of background:
I volunteer at my local Scrapstore (essentially and craft charity shop) we are currently running a crochet course for children who are home educated and Will eventually do it for adults too.
During the process of creating this course we have very much realised we all do things slightly differently.
We were just discussing it and they don’t think I yarn over th same as them. We were watching videos and I possibly yarn under (not intentionally!) but we kept getting confused.
So maybe the very clever people of Reddit can tell?

I do crochet very tight, not intentionally and I don’t even realise it was tight until I met other people who crochet.

At the end of the day I know it doesn’t matter, my stitches are neat and the tightness works well with amigurumi but It would be interesting to know if I do yarn over or do something else

I’ve just finished this top and I’m so pleased. I asked a while ago for advice on the sashing and ended up cutting it on the bias and it was definitely the right decision.

Not sure how I will quilt it so if you have suggestions they would be welcome but that’s definitely a problem for another week!
