I have CFS too, going on 8 years now. Small fibre neuropathy in my limbs too.

Aside from pain management (opioids, ketamine, cannabis), I haven't found anything else to be helpful, and pacing was the opposite of helpful.

You mentioned strength training... how is that possible? I don't know about you, but I have a constant, lactic acid-like burning sensation in my arms, which becomes much worse upon exertion - for example, if I life a kettle full of water, my arm is burning with a strong need to put it down within a few seconds.
