rulings on breaking fast

as selamu aleykum wa rahmetulahi wa barakathu,

i hope this is the right subreddit

ramadan mubarak my dear akhwat and ikhwan

i wanted to ask what the rulings were on breaking the fast. i have heard there is a situation where you have to fast 3 days if u break ur fast and then 60 days.

lemme explain my situation. i have been diagnosed with an auto immune disease mid may 2022. now im practicing since 2023 and this is my third ramadan. im being honest, i am in so much pain. a lot of people say fasting is good for my condition but its been so bad i cant even move my hands for basic daily tasks (open bottles, do my hijab)

i have fasted every day now expect for the impure state ofc.

if i fast but have to take my pain medications, would i have to refast 3 or 60 days. i dont wanna put الله suhanahu wa ta'alas anger on me but im really struggling. i cant even really go down into sujood due to pain. and i dont wanna be like "does my illness let me not fast" because i CAN fast but not for so long (literally tearing up right now)

i try to fast the three white days in each month but fasting over longer periods of time increases my pain and inflammation and i feel so useless because even laying in bed hurts so much.

may الله bless you all. my deepest apologies if this is absolutely absurd and wrong to ask
