Lewis was diagnosed in 2007. “It came on with a very bad headache, and then I was feeling very fatigued. I was wak-
ing up every morning with unexplained body aches and not knowing why I was so tired, why I can’t get out of bed,” she said. She felt like she had moved a whole house of furniture the day before, but she hadn’t done anything that should have made her feel so achy and tired. “I had begun to take Aleve in the morning and at night, every day. And when I had gone through a whole bottle of Aleve – a 100count bottle – I said, ‘Wait a minute, this is
