People can experience varied symptoms but the most telling factor with CFS is extreme fatigue experienced after exercise of exertion. Any form of energy use can leave you feeling exhausted for days or even weeks afterwards and usually it feels like you are suffering with the worst hangover when you wake up in the mornings. The energy battery in our cells are called mitochondria and with CFS the gene function of the mitochondria becomes deregulated or sometimes damaged and so the conversion of nutrients to energy becomes dysfunctional. A new discovery in genetics, called epi-genetics, now gives hope by helping to restore healthy gene function. I am one of the lucky ones to be the first on this therapy and have my health restored after 20 years of suffering. Want to know more email me at janine.j@xtra.co.nz I am happy to helpView Thread
