Summary
GreenEdge, who had spent the prior 2 years of a 26-year illness increasingly bed-bound, felt "totally normal" after 6 months on a carnivore diet, with better eyesight, brain function, sleep and muscle function, and managed significant physical projects without PEM concerns in early October 2022. By late that same month the fatigue, muscle weakness, sore throat and headaches had returned after overexertion (tree pruning), so the diet alone did not prevent a PEM-triggered relapse.
