FREE Vision Screening - online - Neurologic 19 y
The VCS tests is an indicator of ability to detect visual patterns. The test measures the least amount of contrast between light and dark bars (sinusoidal grating) that is needed for the viewer to detect the bars.
Upon completing the VCS test, viewers receive a message indicating that biotoxins are (positive) or are not (negative) likely to be involved in their illness. The criteria for getting a "positive" VCS result is set high to avoid false positive results. This occasionally results in a false negative result; some cases of chronic-biotoxin induced illness may pass the VCS test a some times. VCS can be measured during treatment to monitor recovery.
This website provides information on chronic human illness caused by exposure to toxins produced by living organisms (biotoxins). Many biotoxins are neurotoxins in that they adversely affect neurologic function. Registered users will be able to complete questionnaires on exposure history, medical history and current symptoms. Users can also take a vision screening test that helps determine whether or not their health problems are likely to be caused by biotoxins. Deficits on the vision test, visual contrast sensitivity, have been associated with chronic illness caused by biotoxin exposure ... read more Visual Dysfunction in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome 19 y

Visual Dysfunction in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
By Lesley J. Vedelago, O.D.
There are few references in the literature to visual and/or ocular disturbances in chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), even though visual symptoms are common. Ocular symptoms have been quantified, and are significantly more common than in control groups.1
The ocular signs and symptoms of CFS have not been considered to be a major part of this condition in the past, yet it becomes very obvious when working with these patients that the ocular system is very much affected by, and in turn affects, this s ... read more CFS Disability Scale 19 y
This document, in my view, is a more realisic picture than standard doctor or insurance scales of the impact disability may have on a daily basis.
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Disability Scale
This is an adaptation of the National Health Service Disability Scale, of which is used throughout the medical profession.
You may have seen this scale ‘the other way around’ with 0% referring to severe symptoms, and 100% as fit and well. However this scale is shown in Living with M.E.: The Chronic, Post-viral Fatigue Syndrome By Dr Charles Shepherd ISBN: 0091816793.
O% - FIT AND WELL FOR AT LEAST THE PAST THREE MONTHS.
No symptoms at rest or following activity. Capable of full-time employment.
10% - GENERALLY WELL.
No symptoms at res ... read more Journal of Chronic Fatigue - 2004 19 y

Federal Appeals Court Upholds Oregon Assisted Suicide Law -- DEA Threats to prosecute Hindered Pain Control
Ashcroft Shot Down
Federal Appeals Court Upholds Oregon Assisted Suicide Law -- DEA Threats to Prosecute Hindered Pain Control 5/28/04 A three-judge federal appeals court panel Wednesday upheld an Oregon law allowing doctors to help terminally ill patients commit suicide. The decision said that Attorney General John Ashcroft’s Justice Department did not have the authority to punish Oregon doctors involved in assisted suicides. In its opinion, the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco had some unusually harsh words for Ashcroft, who, the court said, overstepped his bou ... read more Dr. Hyde Blows the Whistle on CDC 19 y
A letter on the diversion of funds scandal at NIH/CDC.
We really have to get educated and find ways to protect ourselves from these people who refuse to take us seriously. It is sick, and sad.
Letter written by Dr. Hyde as requested by CFS Support Groups
Regarding NIH/CDC Fund Diversion of CFS Funds:
I have just read your letter and I know that you are, as many people are, critical of Stephen Straus and what you believe to be his apparent mis-management of the NIH funds for CFS. I am not at all sure it is as simple as that or even if the blame can be laid at or only at Straus’ feet, since funding is probably a group decision. There is reasonable doubt that any one person is responsible for this funding tragedy in the CFS community. However, in the recent CNN talk in wh ... read more Scott - Mycoplasma - Part I 19 y

Pathogenic Mycoplasma
A Common Disease Agent Weaponized
Several strains of mycoplasma have been ”engineered” to become more dangerous. They are now being blamed for AIDS, cancer, CFS, MS, CJD and other neurosystemic diseases.
There are 200 species of Mycoplasma. Most are innocuous and do no harm; only four or five are pathogenic. Mycoplasma fermentans (incognitus strain) probably comes from the nucleus of the Brucella bacterium. This disease agent is not a bacterium and not a virus; it is a mutated form of the Brucella bacterium, combined with a visna vi ... read more Scott - Mycoplasma - Part II 19 y

Brucella Mycoplasma and AIDS
The AIDS pathogen was created out of a Brucella bacterium mutated with a visna virus; then the toxin was removed as a DNA particle called a mycoplasma. They used the same mycoplasma to develop disabling diseases like MS, Crohn’s colitis, Lyme disease, etc.
In the previously mentioned US congressional document of a meeting held on June 9, 1969,12 the Pentagon delivered a report to Congress about biological weapons. The Pentagon stated:
”We are continuing to develop disabling weapons.”

This is my story...
This is my story.
For many years - decades actually, I had intestinal problems. I was diagnosed with Irritable Bowel and had the horrid tests they do - to no avail. I had nightmares about parasites even tho I had never heard of the condition.
I finally moved to Arizona, and as diagnosed with CFS and FMS I figured it was part of the deal... but it is not.
My symptoms were itchy butt, diarhea, stomach pain, intestinal cramps, bloating, PMS, maybe more - don’t remember any more.
I went to a Dr. who laughed at me and wrote in my chart that I was delusional. No one could help me. I had se ... read more Bell - Sleep in CFS 19 y

SLEEP IN CFS
Introduction:
Welcome again to the Lyndonville News, now the 2005 version. I hope that everyone had a good holiday. It goes without saying that persons with ME/CFS/FM are going to take a lot longer to recover from the holidays than healthy persons. Take your time, relax, and remember that the time and energy spent with family and friends is worth the relapse.
I have had good feedback about the definition a ... read more Bell - Faces Of CFS 19 y

Thus begins a lesson in how to cover-up a major health disaster using scientific, “evidence-based” methods meant to impress the media and public at large.

Recently, I reported on the methodology and machinations involved in vaccine-related injury cover-ups by the top researchers in science and government at the Simpsonwood Conference on Thimerosal in vaccines.
Just as the smoke has cleared, however, a brand new scandal has recently come to light concerning the safety of mercury contained in dental amalgams, which is of equal magnitude and again shows the modus operandi of the government/elitist scientists’ coalition. The ... read more Sick Building syndrome - What To Do 19 y
Are you a possible victim of "sick building syndrome"?
Check the symptoms listed below. If you have many of these symptoms during the work week, and you feel better when home or away from your building, you could possibly have "SBS". Do others in your building complain of stale air and frequent colds and viruses?

(Got Salt?) Many CFIDS/FM patients suffer from a condition called NMH or Neurally-Mediated Hypotension. (Hypotension means low blood pressure and neurally-mediated means caused by the brain.) Many doctors are not aware that it is often a symptom or side effect of CFIDS/FM.

Many CFIDS/FM patients suffer from a condition called NMH or Neurally-Mediated Hypotension. (Hypotension means low blood pressure and neurally-mediated means caused by the brain.) Many doctors are not aware that it is often a symptom or side effect of CFIDS/FM. NMH is a miscommunication between the brain and the heart that can cause lightheadedness, dizziness, weakness, fatigue, nausea, mental confusion, headaches, muscle aches and profuse sweating. It can occur after exercise, a period of standing (or even just sitting upright), or exposure to a warm environment. So ... read more |
