CFS revisited

[Guest guest]

Just thought I'd throw this out there in case anyone has any thoughts or

suggestions.

I'm still having BIG problems with my cognitive and physical chronic fatigue so

am getting desperate to try anything that I think may help including eating raw

meat!! I've done and am doing most things and have made progress over the years

but over the last few weeks I think, although I've tried to deny it to myself,

I'm falling back again - as many bad days as good!! :-( Even looking after my

little girl for a day knocks me out for three! My adrenal/thyroid problems are

still not much improved. Obviously physical symptoms include dry hay-like hair,

deep nail ridges and no half-moons, dry skin, permanently blood shot eyes, deep

lower eyelid creases (read somewhere was allergies), sensitive to cold (with

thyroid low basal temp), etc. My B.P today sitting was 95/59 with a pulse of 56

then upon standing (adrenal test) dropped to 81/52 with a pulse of 63! I must

be almost dead!!! Almost as bad as it has been for quite some time despite my

diet changes(no sugar,caffeine,alcohol,etc), liver/kidney/parasite cleanses,

ozone therapies, etc. The fatigue, not only, but always seems to hit when I'm

driving. Within 10 minutes of driving I start to get a light feeling in the

back of my head, then my neck starts losing strength and it's a struggle to keep

my head up, then the same weaknesses in my arms, shoulder blades and upper back.

Everything just wants to collapse and it's a struggle to stay awake. My head

goes to a fuzz and I can't think about even the simplest of things. I know

these are all common symptoms and they're the ones I get all the time, not just

driving, but it seems interesting how it is triggered by driving so

consistently. Now I'm wondering if it's just the stress of driving pinging my

'knackered' adrenals or whether it's actually carbon monoxide poisoning ??

The massive depressions too, that I've suffered with for years and thought I was

over have been resurfacing over the last couple of weeks. Now I'm thinking

maybe I need to do mercury detoxes as, perhaps, my glands and brain are loaded

with old fillings metals (had them all removed a few years ago). Or, perhaps

its Lymes disease (chronic fatigue did actually begin only after illness in

Jamaica which included a strange large rash on my 'glutimous maximus' region :-)

where I'd been bitten by something on the beach one evening. Also got massively

sick, diahorrea,etc at the time). Or, despite all my efforts, maybe my

adrenal/thyroid really are past it due to years of sugar abuse and there is no

alternative or fix besides glandular extracts or drugs! :-(

Hate to sound like an old whinger but I just thought something may strike a

chord with someone or perhaps there is something obvious that I've missed

besides the usual stuff. I'm sure there's stuff I forgot to mention but am

feeling pretty tired and brain fogged right now. To be honest, six years of

fighting this thing is beginning to piss me off and I'm running out of patience!

Maybe, my lack of nutrition and junk food from 0-20yrs has resulted in an

irreversably weakened body and there really is nothing that can be done! Sorry

- feeling pretty negative about everything today!! Any thoughts ?

Thanks
