Default Cognitive issues/depressive state after mild exercise?

Hello friends,
Un-dx'd here with another question. I've discussed this with my neuro but we haven't figured it out yet.

I noticed a pattern over the past 6-8 months (since symptoms started) that when I "overdo it" physically, I end up feeling depressed. This occurs within 1-2 hours after (now) going for a walk or some other form of exercise that my body sees as too much.

Before I realized what was going on, I had been going to the gym and feeling just TERRIBLE afterwards.... blue, down in the dumps, etc. The absolute inverse of what I was used to experiencing.

My neuro is testing for MS and also myasthenia gravis. Have any of you experienced this "exercise intolerance" with depression in conjunction with your MS?

Thanks in advance : )
