    I’m on the milder end with the work and crash version being most prevalent for me. I don’t get to do much else. I hate the days when I suddenly can’t think, can’t see well, can’t tolerate light, sound or anything touching my skin. It could be one thing or all of them. I’m always in pain, but sometimes I can manage that better than at other times, and I use time as a measure because it is moment to moment on some days. I remember seeing Unrest for the first time, and crying because M.E. was me, and I was so thankful to know that I wasn’t crazy.

    I wondered how you were doing and so happy to have found this update.
    Ren Gill is in your documentary “Unrest” and is doing better. He is currently getting treatment in Cananda. He was eventually diagnosed with Lyme disease. He just released his album Sick Boi which has blown up online and got the #1 album of the year in the UK. I wonder if you have kept up with him over the years. His music is so relatable especially if you suffer from chronic illness, mental illness, etc.

      I had lyme as well, osha root, fringed sage, and lomatium root cured me after the doxycline and buhner's protocol failed. I had mercury poisoning and emeramide cured me. I had c. diff and oregon grape root cured me. I had covid multiple times including the two times i had the cytokine storm and gumweed leaf, zinc, and white horehound cured me. I look forward to the host blocking this comment as she did on twitter to me before.

    Jen was so right to describe sensory processing issues. The whole illness is understudied, but this area has been extra neglected. I have sensory storms...outside of general light and sound sensitivity.

  • @paulmaurer294

    Jenn Brea has done a wonderful job giving ME/CFS legitimacy by explaining what people go through with ME/CFS - very difficult to do WHILE suffering with the illness. However, I sense she might, as a high acheiver, be putting a lot of pressure on herself to "fully recover" from an illness very few if any, truly recover from. Exposing the reality of the illness is a HUGE benefit to those with the illness. Giving the impression the condition can be fully cured in a significant proportion of patients, if in fact recovery is rare, might put most ME/CFS patients right back into the situation where they are blamed for the persistence of their illness. I would LOVE if Jenn and all other ME/CFS patients were totally cured, however so far I observe very few recovering, a quite a few claiming to be cured returning a year later with ME/CFS.

    I think it can be triggered by menopause - my fibromyalgia/insomnia (I've also had POTS). I am going to try estradiol patches as soon as I can get an appointment with an obgyn nurse practitioner. The only one in this area has a waiting list.

    My CFS became so strange after the first 5 years, I had a considerable disruption of my normal life then I started to have neurological decline, then problems retaining water, cysts etc, hypersensitivity crisis where I had to leave one room after another, this then later turned into multiple chemical sensitivity, mold hypersensitivity, food sensitivity / flushing, weird reactions to traffic fumes, pollen season etc, then SIBO and food intolerances / reactions, later figured out part of this was thiamine deficiency aka beri beri. I'm using bioresonance and frequency treatment now because my situation is too complicated and doctors have never been any help.

    • @paulmaurer294
      @paulmaurer294 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Feldenkrais Method calls for giving LESS effort with each repetition, and can be done alone lying in a bed and even without moving at all, which makes it a nice therapy for ME/CFS folks with limited energy and limited time standing each day. I highly recommend this therapy - have not seen it cure this illness but I have see many amazing and permanent positive changes in myself and others.

    I wish she would slow down a bit and speak words more clearly, especially words that may be unfamiliar- medical terminology. She is presumably speaking to people who do have brain fog and it would help if she remembers that. They also don't have the energy or patience to continually re-listen to various words and statements.
