Re: AF and CFS-same or different?

My story is very similar, SB. I don't quite fit the bill for fibromyalgia anymore, but my muscles are constantly sore and achy- just enough to be annoying.

I was doing really well for about a month and a half and now I've crashed very badly over the past two days. I feel almost back to square one with the fatigue, nausea, dizziness. It's so discouraging because I really felt like I was climbing out of the woods. I'm hoping that this is just my body eliminating some metals, or some pathogenic die off.

From all the research I've done, I've come to understand that all diseases stem from heavy metals and/or pathogenic bacteria/viruses.

I just sent my hair sample in for a retest. I'm anxious to see what the results are, but frustrated because it takes so darn long for them to come back.

I watched a video the other day about CFS/ME and it showed this poor boy of 16 years confined to his bed and being fed through a tube in his stomach. To be honest, it scared the hell out of me. So much propaganda out there claiming that CFS/ME cannot be cured and that people who have it usually die 20 years younger than they should.

I try to stay away from that kind of stuff, but when doing research it's impossible not to come across it every now and then. But I keep reminding myself that these are people who go alone with conventional drugs and are unfortunately not as enlightened as we are.

On the other hand, I have read success stories of people who have actually recovered.

It's so difficult to draw the line with all these diagnoses...
