Guest guest Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 yeah, lance, mine was really slow onset,. too - in fact for a couple of years I collapsed for a couple of months and then would get back on my bike until i collapsed again - in retrospect, collapses were due to airplanes, insect bites and the coup was a yellow fever vaccine.....exercise and being a vegetarian probably didn't help!!! when my lactate was measured at rest it was normal....i think it's pretty well known now that PWC do have a mito problem....treatments for mito are l-carnitine, co-q10 a nd other suplements which i don't recall, and yeah, greg was diagnosed with it....personally, i think cfids is a much better disease to have!! am finally starting to make some real progress on the MP!! deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
