His website changed since this video was made. I updated the link in the video description. It works now.

If you think the chronic fatigue is caused by bacteria, can a antibiotic kill the bacteria and stop fatigue

CFS is not a disease. It is syndrome. A syndrome is a set of symptoms without a known cause. A disease has both a set of symptoms and a cause. Syndrome does not equal disease. This is why they call something syndromes and some things diseases. Example:Chronic Fatigue Syndrome - No cause.Irritable bowel Syndrome - No cause.Lymes disease - known cause. Sexually transmitted diseases - known causes.

Um, fatigue is not the only symptom with the actual disease called chronic fatigue syndrome. There is a list of at least thirty other symptoms sufferers have. It's not just about being tired and not getting enough sleep...how offensive.

i have always believed that the mono i had at 16 had a huge to-do with why i am chronically fatigued...it hit me hard, that mono...i am now 38 years old and struggle for energy. if i have energy, it only lasts a few hours at most. what i am wondering about is...what if we don't have much money (due to wanting to sleep more than work!?!?) to get proper testing...i am on state paid insurance...would they test for cortisol? thank you...

Sorry to hear that sypher.Never give up looking for a cause of your CFS. Every case of CFS has a cause, you just need to find the cause and treat it.Do you have a good doctor doing loads of tests?I bet if you had a proper thorough physical exam with loads of tests for infections, adrenal fatigue, thyroid problems, hormonal imbalances, vitamins & mineral deficiencies, chemical/heavy metal poisoning, gut problems, etc, etc. you would find some treatable abnormalities that could help.

Absolutley agree with you Zild. I have a very severe case - been going through such a bad patch at the moment, that im in bed nearly 24hrs a day, and have been into ER 4 times in one month for episodes of becoming extremely weak, cold, with severe blood pressure drops to the point where i needed an ambulance - & that was just from getting up to get a drink. Now i have eaten more 'perfectly' in the past than most people i've known. All organic food, vege juices, it didnt 'cure' me at all.

No offense but I find it very hard to believe your story. If you're wife was one of the worst cases in the world, she'd be almost dead. I know one of the worst cases in the UK and she is hospitalized, being tube fed and basically paralyzed.Also I don't see how switching to organic food can cure one of the worst cases of CFS in 3 weeks - that's ridiculous.Sounds to me like you're just trying to promote a book.The video is excellent and Dr. Bellonzi is spot on.

hi! well it sounds to me you have the MONO (mononucleosis). I had it for like a month and your symptoms sound just like mine back then. my advice: go to an ER, get the monotest and rest, get plenty of rest and fluids since there is no cure for this virus. It needs to go away on its own. Hope it helps, take care. |
