Returning to exercise after years of de-conditioning and chronic illness - any one else in the same boat?

Hi there!

I am planning to return to the gym after years of not exercising at all and several chronic illnesses, so feel like I am starting from below level zero aha.

Just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat or has successfully done this without triggering a huge flare or severe illness. Would love to hear from you :)

Currently trying to prep my body to give it the best chance to start next week with some slow gentle strength exercises.
