Extractions: een nieuwe cluster outbreak van CVS/ME? Sommige onderzoekers denken dat CVS/ME, zoals veel immuunsysteemziektes, in aanleg genetisch is bepaald en dat een soort van "trigger" er voor zorgt dat de ziekte zich openbaart. Deze trigger veroorzaakt bij mensen die aanleg hebben voor CVS/ME een soort van "domino effect", alles in hun lichaam gaat plotseling mis. Hun immuunsysteem wordt overactief, het endocriene (hormonale) systeem raakt ontregeld, ze ontwikkelen intoleranties voor zowel chemische als voedingsstoffen en ze krijgen de meest vreemde infectieziekten. Deze trigger kan worden veroorzaakt door een infectieziekte zoals bijvoorbeeld de ziekte van Pfeiffer, maar ook, zoals sommige onderzoekers denken, door een lage dosis gifstoffen in combinatie met geestelijke stress (Bijlmerrampsyndroom, Gulf War Syndrome en in de nabije toekomst misschien het 11 September Syndroom).

http://acupuncture.com/Acup/ME.htm

Extractions: by by Giovanni Maciocia Homepage Back Myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) is becoming more and more widespread in Western countries. ME is the name most commonly used in the UK, while in the USA it is now called Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (CFIDS). This condition is also variously called "Chronic Fatigue Syndrome", "Postviral Syndrome", or "Postviral Fatigue Syndrome". I personally make a distinction between "true" ME and "not true" ME which I call "Postviral Fatigue Syndrome", and this distinction (and its significance) will be explained shortly. <0.00001. In the USA, research seems to be oriented more towards the Epstein-Barr virus (the one that causes mononucleosis or glandular fever) as a cause of ME. From the point of view of Chinese medicine, two main conditions explain the pathogenesis of ME: residual pathogenic factor and Latent Heat. One of the main conditions leading to ME is that of "residual pathogenic factor". If external Wind invades the body and is not cleared properly, or if the person fails to rest during an acute invasion of Wind, the pathogenic factor may remain in the Interior (usually as either Heat, Phlegm-Heat or Damp-Heat). Here, on the one hand, it continues to produce symptoms and signs and, on the other, it predisposes the person to further invasions of exterior pathogenic factors because it obstructs the proper diffusing and descending of Lung-Qi. Moreover, it will also tend to weaken Qi and/or Yin, establishing a vicious circle of pathogenic factor and deficiency.

http://www.anzmes.org/

Extractions: Do people with CFS Recover? What is Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or ME? Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) is a serious and complex illness characterised by incapacitating fatigue (experienced as profound exhaustion and extremely poor stamina), neurological problems and certain other symptoms. By definition the condition does not improve with rest and persists for a minimum of 6 months. In many cases it lasts for years and severely impairs a person's ability to function. CFS is also known as Tapanui Flu, Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction syndrome (CFIDS) and myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME). What are the main symptoms of CFS? The hallmark of the disorder is the onset of fatigue that significantly reduces daily activity in a previously healthy person. Other characteristic symptoms include: - impaired memory or concentration; sore throat, tender lymph nodes, muscle pain, multi joint pain without joint swelling or redness; headaches of a new type, pattern or severity; unrefreshing sleep and post-extertional malaise lasting more than 24 hours.

Extractions: M.E. Review Advocacy ... Reprint Policy Unfortunately, in 1988, what was historically known both as myalgic encephalomyelitis and as the well-documented epidemic neuromyasthenia was renamed Chronic Fatigue Syndrome by employees at the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), who imposed the misleading fatigue term onto patients and researchers. In 1994, more damage was done when the CDC broadened the definition for CFS to include many diverse, unrelated diseases, for which CFS became an umbrella term. Currently, a government-appointed name-change workgroup has proposed a new umbrella term, Neuroendocrineimmune Dysfunction Syndrome (NDS ), under which Ramsay, Canadian, and other selection criteria subsets would be placed. M.E. (and its related syndromes) has often been called the disease of a thousand names. M.E. was a fair name based on observations at the time by well-meaning, knowledgeable physicians. But some names were politically motivated. Our group opposes the more damaging names that have been used in publications, specifically those employing the word "fatigue." Nevertheless, the research findings are important, and we are committed to publicizing the findings that fit our definitional framework even if they were published on under some of these other names.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/medical_notes/97509.stm

Extractions: Myalgic encephalomyelitis or chronic fatigue syndrome has only been recognised by doctors in recent years, after originally being dismissed as 'yuppie flu'. The first symptoms are, in fact, similar to flu, but they do not go away and, in many cases, become worse. Some experts remain to be convinced of its existence, mainly because no one cause has been identified and symptoms often vary for different patients. What are the symptoms? The main symptoms are debilitating fatigue, muscle pain, mental fogginess, painful lymph nodes and, frequently, stomach pains. The cause of chronic fatigue cannot be explained by other conditions, such as depression, and it does not improve substantially after periods of rest. Some patients also have difficulty in concentrating, short-term memory impairment, sore throats, headaches and insomnia.
Myalgic Encephalomyelitis Cure
The myalgic encephalomyelitis virus can be eliminated with electricity.Read treatment. myalgic encephalomyelitis Alternative Cure.
http://www.bioelectric.ws/eng/ME.html

Extractions: Cure is possible with electromedicine and rebalancing the hormonal/glandular system. If you feel like you have the flu constantly or chronic mononucleosis then you probably have an ongoing viral infection causing Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME). This viral disease was beating me to death for 16 years until I tried this alternative treatment The Epstein Barr virus is a common cause of this disease, and when it (or any other causative virus) is treated with electric current it loses its ability to infect human white blood cells. Without being able to infect cells with their nucleic acids then the viruses are stopped from being able to use the human cells to reproduce themselves. Being left 'free-floating' in the blood serum (fluid), then the white blood cells will eventually take the viruses out of the bloodstream one-by-one (which is their job as immune cells). This type of treatment with electricity presents the most important step to a possible cure. Researchers at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in NY discovered this activity of elecricity against viruses , stopping their ability to attach to human cells receptor sites. The electricity needed was only a scant 50-100 micro-amps (millionths of an ampere) which is not enough to feel. Afterwards they created a

Extractions: A CALL FOR ACTION: THE RECOGNITION OF MYALGIC ENCEPHALOMYELITIS AS A SERIOUS AND DEBILITATING DISEASE View Current Signatures Sign the Petition To: United States Department of Health and Human Services, National Institutes of Health, and Centers for Disease Control We, the undersigned, respectfully demand that Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME), an internationally recognized neurological disease, be also formally recognized as a distinct clinical entity in the United States by the National Institutes of Health and the Centers for Disease Control. It is time to make the case definition/diagnostic criteria explicit in the name. Currently, most patients are diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, a poorly defined, misunderstood, controversial syndrome which remains underfunded and underresearched. The name Chronic Fatigue Syndrome itself has trivialized the illness and further subjected these patients to incredulity and ridicule. The CFS rubric has not only neglected and failed to help those with ME, it has harmed them. ME patients will not improve with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) or graded exercise (in fact, exercise will make them worse) - yet these are considered treatments for CFS. Simply "renaming" CFS will not solve this problem. ME should not be considered a subset of CFS, for the hallmarks of ME will not be present in the population of CFS patients once the Ramsay criteria are established in the US. Patients with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis under the CFS criteria must wait for six (6) months before acquiring a diagnosis, a critical period in which possible recovery is diminished by lack of proper treatment. The ME definition does not require a six month wait. (See Ramsay Definition at: http://www.egroups.co.uk/message/ME-itis_NOW/2.)

The condition called chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a poorly understood illness associated with chronic symptoms and disability. It is sometimes called myalgic encephalomyelitis, although this term has the disadvantage of implying a cause (inflammation of the brain) that has not been proven. The symptom of fatigue is very common and is reported to be a problem by some 25 per cent of the general population in the UK and USA. The disabling condition of chronic fatigue syndrome is much less common, affecting less than one per cent of the population. Chronic fatigue syndrome is not a new disease. A very similar description was described more than a 100 years ago and was given the name neurasthenia.

Myalgic Encephalomyelitis appears on the World Health Organisation's International Classification of Diseases list (G93.3, ICD-10) as a Neurologic disease. Myalgic Encephalomyelitis is a distinctive clinical syndrome first reported in patients after outbreaks of viral infections in 1950s and was characterised by persistent fatigue, muscle pain (myalgia), symptoms suggestive of brain and spinal cord dysfunction (encephalomyelitis) and conspicuous deterioration of symptoms after physical exertion. Pathologically, ME is an inaccurate term since there is little evidence of ongoing inflammatory activity in the muscles or brain. Post-viral fatigue syndrome was used to describe a similar syndrome where patients could clearly trace the onset of their illness back to a viral infection. However, ME-type symptoms are also known to follow other infections (for example, Lyme disease), post-infective neurologic diseases (such as Common symptoms include: Persistent or relapsing fatigue unrelieved by rest or sleep.

http://www.forme-cfs.co.uk/current_research.html

Extractions: M.E. (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis) , also known as C.F.S. (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) , is a chronic disorder which leaves the patient suffering from intense lethargy, pain in the muscles and joints, plus mental confusion and many other serious and unpleasant symptoms. It often leaves the patient with long-term disability and facing a miserable existence. At least 400,000 people in the U.K. alone suffer from M.E., and it even affects children as young as five years of age. Many patients become bedridden for long periods, and some need to be hospitalised. Firstly clinical trials scientifically demonstrated that osteopathic treatment did indeed help with symptoms associated with M.E. [Perrin RN, Edwards J and Hartley P (January/February 1998).
