Surely there's an alternative to just not biking... slowing down? Rethinking priorities, changing jobs?
Sure. Walk. Take public transit. Either one is fine, and if you're car free, sometimes there's just no choice... if you're too sick to bike to work, you're too sick to work at all, and you had better take mass transit to a doctor.
Thankfully, the OP isn't in that position
And it sounds to *me* like more sleep, shooting for 4 days a week, and help from a more appropriate doctor should get the OP into a much better position. I know it can take me quite a while to ramp up miles, and I'm relatively healthy.
