This makes a lot of sense to me. I have a disorder of the sympathetic nervous system (CRPS) and a rare cardiac condition (Brugada Syndrome). The inter-relationships between exercise, cardiac arrythmias and nerve pain flares is very strong and complicated. I take this as further evidence that exercise is dangerous.

> I take this as further evidence that exercise is dangerous. What does this even mean? Whatever we call exercise is an arbitrary threshold. Humans, unless they live their life bound to a chair, move about, in different degrees, and anything more than walking we can call exercise. Humans have evolved to cross this exercise threshold multiple times a day simply to survive (who's gonna catch that running antelope?), so how can moderate movement for more than 5 minutes be dangerous? It might be because of your set of physical issues, but it's not a rule.

    After mentioning the physical issues you have when you exercise, it was quite hard to tell you were being sarcastic.

    Never succumb to the temptation of adding `/s` Those who depend on it to see sarcasm need to either lighten up or read more novels. Was clearly sarcastic; you're not crazy.

Maybe not in GP's comment, but I've been seeing more and more Instagram content lately about "exercise = dangerous". And investigating further, it's always by the accounts that are perpetuating flat earth, numerology, and Andrew Tate.

    This truth springs directly from the mind of esteemed athlete and physiologist Donald J Trump, does it not?
