Hi Sweet Cheeks

Here is an idea to overcome CFS.


Quick Action Plan for CFS


1. An essential first step in dealing with CFS is a healthy diet. Emphasize fresh, organic vegetables at every meal, along with organic, free-range meats, poultry, or wild caught fish and complex grains and other carbohydrates, such as legumes, red potatoes, squash or yams. Also be sure to drink plenty of pure, filtered water throughout the day, and to obtain an adequate supply of foods rich in essential fatty acids, such as sardines, raw nuts and seeds and organic flax, virgin coconut and extra virgin olive oils.

2. Have yourself checked for food allergies and avoid all foods to which you are allergic or sensitive.

3. Also eliminate all sugars and simple carbohydrates, as well as all commercially processed foods, and sodas, and minimize you intake of coffee and alcohol.

4. Supplement with a food-based multivitamin/multimineral formula, as well as beta carotene B complex vitamins plus vitamin B12 and pantothenic acid, vitamin C, coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), magnesium, potassium, and zinc. For additional benefit, also consider essential fatty acid supplements, such as fish oils and evening primrose oil; germanium; NADH; and adrenal, thymus, and thyroid extracts.

5. Herbal remedies can also be helpful. Among the most effective herbs for CFS are aloe vera, astragalus, echinacea, garlic, goldenseal, grapefruit seed extract, larch tree extract, licorice, lomatium, maitake mushroom, myrrh, noni, nettle, oatstraw, olive leaf extract, Panax ginseng, Panax ginseng, Siberian ginseng, St. John's wort, suma, and yarrow root.

6. Hyperthermia, or artificially induced fever, can also provide significant benefits for CFS. To use hyperthermia at home, heat bath water to a high a temperature as you can tolerate, then soak in the bath for five to ten minutes while sipping warm water to which 2,000 mg of vitamin C has been added. As soon as you get out of the bath, dry yourself quickly, then get into bed and cover yourself with blankets. Women should place a hot water bottle below their breasts, while men should place it over the liver, which is located on the right side of the body, just below the rib cage. Remain under the covers for 20 to 30 minutes. Repeat this procedure three times a day. An alternative method is a far-infrared sauna. Once again, this must be in conjunction with a complete healing program, best over seen by an alternative Dr.

7. Remember that CFS is not caused by a single factor, but the end result of multiple causes working in conjunction with each other to severely diminish health. In order to effectively treat and recover from CFS, a comprehensive treatment approach is necessary and should be undertaken under the guidance and supervision of a trained holistic health specialist.

Proper treatment of CFS requires an ongoing, comprehensive treatment program that addresses all possible underlying causes of the disease. This is in stark contrast to the approach taken by conventional physicians, who rely solely on the use of pharmaceutical drugs to treat chronic fatigue syndrome. Not only are such drugs rarely effective for CFS, they suppress the immune system, are very expensive and frequently cause serious side effects, including the very symptoms of CFS that are being treated.

Best of health to you.

Cheers

It's possible, because of fatigue and joint pain, but usually CFS comes and goes.

The detailed post that someone just put up here is very good. One thing I might add is to avoid vaccines like the plague. There is evidence that your immune system can't handle the stimulation and your symptoms can ramp up to such a level that you're disabled. I'm referring to the ones for chicken pox, German measles, etc.

I had a doctor once tell me that if you're a woman with CFS and your state requires vaccination against German measles before you can get a marriage license, you should take vacation to a state with no such limitations and get married there to avoid the vaccine. I have to add that he was referring to vaccines made by Merck. There are some French ones that are safer but I have no idea what makes them so.

The important thing with CFS is to get a routine and stick to it....working, eating, sleeping. Cut back on alcohol consumption.
You'll notice that if you go through a period of extreme stress,your CFS will get worse about two weeks later. Typically, this manifests with fever, headache, earaches, and may include joint pain. Most CFS sufferers have sleep disturbances with night sweats--they're exhausted but can't sleep soundly through the night. A short nap is good, but daytime sleeping isn't encouraged.

Gentle exercise can also help, although you may think that you don't have the energy. It's important to keep your mood elevated.

Good luck. CFS tends to be most acute when you first get it....then the attacks are farther and farther apart after a year or so.

I had CFS for 4 years and it took 4 more years to get back to my old self. I suppose some could require a wheelchair for a while because you get so very weak and your legs will tremble so much. But your immune system is out of whack so you shouldn't be out around people anyway. Just stay home and slowly you will begin to get better.
