Hi myeezy24, I have not been diagnosed with adrenal fatigue, I gave up on Dr.'s diagnosing or helping, but I know that I have adrenal fatigue. My adrenals haven't worked right in years. I have these...
At the risk of sounding like your mother nagging at you....... Be very careful pushing yourself with the walks, especially if you feel worse after going. Post Exersional Malaise will only get worse...
helo cubs103, I am sorry you are dealing with your symptoms. There are many things that can be causing your fatigue and sore throat. Have you had a complete check-up lately? Maybe you should start by...
Hi Nazareth, just saw your thread and wanted to reply. I have CF, although my Dr. insists it is only FM. From my research I found that the deciding point for CF was if you had Post Exersional...
slee17, sorry you are going through this..... I can identify with you. When I crashed a couple years ago my symptoms became more numerous and more intense. I had many of the symptoms you describe...
Ion is a stabilized liquid oxygen. It is supposed to help fight bacteria and viruses. I attached a web site below and you can research it. http://peggylayton.net/ccp0-catshow/ion.html Noni is a...
littlemama33, first off, I am sorry for what you are going through.... Yes, mine came on in stages. At first I would get sick every few months for a few weeks. It started getting closer and closer...
Ebstein Bar is a virus from the herpes family. When someone contracts it, it can go unnoticed. If someone developed symptoms of sore throat, fatigue, fever, lack of appetite, weakness, etc., then it...
Ashaline, glad I could help. Mine started similar to your daughters. I got the West Nile and just felt like I had a hard time recovering from it. I was having what I thought was relapses. At first...
Sorry no one answered your post. It is probably because they have discussed this before. You can do a search and find some old posts if you wish. If I am in a flare I have so many symptoms it is hard...
First off, sorry for what you are going through. The yellow bumps could be a form of yeast infection. If you have had these for many years, or decades, I would not be surprised if you had candida....
EricS, I am sorry you are having such a difficult time. I can't speak for any one else, but for me, the biggest success I have had has been through diet. If I really stick to it, I do pretty will....
Glad it helped. This is a lonely disease. I feel isolated often, even though I am around others, there is so much I keep to myself. I hope you are doing better. Keep in touch....
littlemama33, you are not doing anything wrong. This disease is just plain awful. Not only because of how it destroys our lives, but how there is no medical criteria that says "we are sick". I have...
First off, you sound very mature for a 14 year old. The symptoms you describe have nothing to do with ME/CFS so I am wondering why you picked this condition to pose this question. But, I will give...
ekate26, I am so sorry for all you have been through. After reading your story, I really don't think you ever recovered. Just the fact that when you over due it you get the symptoms. That is classic...
Glad you found the site, sorry you are here. One of the main diagnostics for CFS is a thing called Post Exertion Malaise. That is when about 24 - 48 hours after you exercise, walk, or exert yourself...
noramouse, I am so sorry for what you are dealing with. The only suggestion I can give is to really look at your diet and exertion. Are you eating sugars, refined foods, etc.? Sometimes gluten can...
Yes, I get massages and the toxic overload, but more than that, the lactic acid release, really makes me sick. I am down for at least a day or more after one. I have found that it usually hits me...
Sorry about your setback Terrahawk, I know how you feel. I have some "foods" that really knock me out too. It is hard to stay so strict on a diet, but I would rather eat only bananas every day than...
Yah, that is how I felt when it started with me. Two good weeks, a couple bad days. It slowly progressed until it became two bad weeks, one so,so day, until I was sick all the time. I really do...
My CFS/FM started after I had a virus, the West Nile. Your symptoms could be one or both of those. Why don't you look up the symptoms, I bet you will notice you have a few more....
A lot of people are sensitive to salicyalates, it can cause headaches, ADHD problems and tantrum in children, to mention a few of the effects. I am really glad you are feeling so much better....
I had a really bad year about 2 years ago, couldn't hardly get out of bed. I finally figured out a lot of what was causing it was foods, one of the biggest culprits for me was chocolate. I felt much...
I have seen a chiro a few times. He is really good, takes ex-rays, locates the issues and presents a plan before he starts. I couldn't turn my neck before he adjusted me, now it feels much better and...
I know how you feel, it has been hard for me to control the tears too and I too never cried that much before. As for the tooth, I would go back to your old dentist, if he just crowned it 2 month ago,...
When I went through it last winter it started at the beginning of August and lasted until around the beginning of May. My flu like symptoms were awful. I had all the flu symptoms but I didn't throw...
mishell, I know exactly how you feel. I had an episode like that that lasted nearly 8 months last year. I was dreadfully sick all the time. I finally figured out that chocolate was adding immensely...
I have been night sweating for 10 years, I am 2 or 3 years post menopause. I definitely think my hormones have been thrown off by the fibro, cfs....
It definitely is a different life style. I do all the above except medication. I am able to control it IF I pay attention to what you mentioned and also my stressors. There are some foods that...
I am jealous jewelrylady, I used to love chocolate (still do) but it hates me. If I eat chocolate I get very sick, even the highest quality brands. Back to the old saying - every one is different...
A multi vitamin and extra Vitamin D help me, along with fresh juicing and lost of raw veggies, no junk food or sugar. Every one is different but it might be worth a try. Sorry to hear you are doing...
Welcome MynneMouse, it will be nice to read your posts and get to know you...
I get sore throats. Sometimes it is as you stated, feels like it is coming on and other times it is worse. As for my ears, mostly I get the ringing in them....
Booklvr, I hear you... this thing can get so tiring. I was feeling a little better for a few days, then I started feeling sick again. I almost just broke down in tears, I am so sick of feeling sick...
Granny, fibro is very weird. I had it for several years before I was diagnosed, thought I was just dealing with residual effects from West Nile. Anyway, about 3 years ago I had horrible upper body...
GrammyG, as stated before, everyone is different. When I make changes in my diet, it is not just what I cut out of the diet, but what I add to it, like: fresh juicing every day, raw vegetables and...
Yup, I get very sick, flu, hungover feeling. Lays me out flat for a whole day. Won't go near the stuff. It is kind of a bummer. Didn't drink it much (couple times a year) but every once in a while a...
This is an old resurrected post, but interesting. I watched a video on Post Exercise Malaise - I think someone on this site had it posted on another thread. Any way this Dr. (can't remember his name)...
Yes, I have that too. I used to have a higher than average IQ also, enjoyed reading and learning new things. I don't do that so much any more, it takes so much effort just to read a regular novel,...
Yup, sore throat is a lingering symptom at times for me....
I work full time at a mostly sit down job too. On one hand I am grateful that it is not a high energy job because I have post exercise malaise, on the other hand I do get very sore and "hit a wall"...
I have started juicing in the mornings. I usually juice carrots, cucumber and apples. Even if you have digestive problems, or I should say, especially if you have them, juicing is great. It helps me...
I have a knot in my left shoulder that can be painful. It takes weeks with the massage therapist to get it worked out. Phlegm, have had it for years. mine is mostly in the morning too. I am pretty...
I went through a period where the muscles in my left arm were so tight and hurt so bad that I really wished I could cut it off. I tried massage and she would get it relaxed a bit and it would tighten...
My mom has hereditary hemochromatosis. There are tests you can have done to find out if you have it. I guess it might be better to have that, although you still have to deal with the symptoms, even...
disturbed33, I truly sympathize with your situation. As for the headaches. Caffeine and sugar are both very addictive. Many people get headaches when their body starts to withdraw from these two...
I get awful flu like symptoms with my fibro. It is more debilitating for me than the pain....
I have fibro and I am pretty sure CFS too. Your symptoms sound like fibro. to me. You can go over to the fibro forum, it has a lot more activity there and you might get more inmput. Every since I...
Have you had your vitamin and mineral levels checked? Sometimes deficiencies have symptoms like that....
