Like I say I h...Hi Sarah,<BR/><BR/>I will be interested too. Like I say I have had many, many tests before and they all (almost) came back normal. Certainly, they did not point to the root cause of my problems. <BR/><BR/>I have still to be convinced about your CFS profile testing. I will reserve my judgement until I have read the whole book, but my first instincts are to treat this work with suspicion. I do not want to take anything away from you because this technique is working for you and I am delighted about that. However, my concerns are the number of holes in the book's arguments and the lack of evidence for many of the statements made. For example, I have not come across any scientific or other literature that connects CFS or ME to a weakness in the heart, and the book does not, as far as I can see provide any evidence or justification for this belief.<BR/><BR/>I am nevertheless finding it an interesting and enjoyable read.

Regarding your symptoms of dizzyness, cold hands and feet etc. I had similar symptoms towards the start of my illness and actually thought I was anaemic. They have gradually improved but if I am really worn out and tired then I still feel dizzy.<BR/><BR/>I would suggest, if you are really worried and can afford it, having the CFS profile test referred to in that book. It was the only test I had that revealed anything was wrong. Perhaps, living in Germany may prevent this from being an option though.<BR/><BR/>All I would say is that you haven't long been diagnosed so be patient and I'm sure you will get to the bottom of your symptoms.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
