and I know those who are TIRED of being TIRED ... with the CFS, FM, CFIDS pattern of symptoms ... won't find the fatigue with the blood tests that will be done, even though there is something for anemia (in the extreme cases, maybe, but not for most people)
... for Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome doctors say they do not know what the fatigue is. I believe I've stumbled onto what the fatigue is: autoimmune hemolytic anemia, but doctors are not alerted by the regular blood tests to check for it. I think they have to look at the same info just a little differently, and LOOK at the red blood cells: size, shape, membranes, age? and is there blood in urine? (or later, is there an abnormal peripheral blood test?)
The chemical I suspect for THIS fatigue can cause birth defects: the teratogen chemical, 2-butoxyethanol. If it is a birth defect, then you would not necessarily have the fatigue yourself, but most likely the mom would, or her parents.
This chemical and complex versions of it is easy to be exposed to, even today, It is prevalent in many household cleaning products, paint, & solvents that carpenters & mechanics use. AVOID this chemical, especially if you have already been exposed to it.
A synonymn for what 2-butoxyethanol does is hemoglobinuria ... and that indicates harm to X-chromosome possible, or part of the picture. I suspect it is the root cause of harm for many autoimmune metabolic issues: diabetes, Autism, leukodystrophies, etc, etc
If you are concerned about this, ask your doctor about focusing on good nutrition and glyconutrient food supplements More info Those who specialize in chemical exposures will tell you that adding other chemicals to your chemical 'load' can be very detrimental. So, be sure even the medications you are offered are proven, and not just to help you cope. You are dealing with an autoimmune immune system with this chemical ... at least from the study I've done, that appears to be the root problem: your immune system is attacking you.
And remember, God is in the healing business ... so find a church who prays ... and ask them to pray for you.
