Fibro Fatigue

If you have fibro, you know why I am so happy to find out that my blood test came back abnormal! We Fibromyalgics are cursed by normal blood tests that leave us at a dead end, and a doctor who is beginning to wonder if it's all in our heads. But when they come back with an objective, measurable problem, it's as good as getting a Christmas present--actually, better. I have ISAC: Immune System Activation of Coagulation. My fibrinogen level was high, though on the upper limits of normal, and the platelet activation index was abnormal. I am finding more helpful information on this on the net. You can too.

I received the tip from a Dr. Grams of Pennsylvania, whose site at hyperbaric4autism.com caught my eye. He is a chiropractor who has had good response to the treatment for it. He referred me to a Dr. David Berg of Hemex Labs, http://www.hemex.com/ . This website has scientific articles on the hypothesis that Dr. Berg, a chemist, first proposed nine or ten years ago. The theory is that the body, recognizing an infection and unable to shake it, begins a cascade response in the immune system which builds up fibrin deposits on the walls of the capillaries to "wall off" the infection. This in turn reduces oxygen-exchange out of, and re-uptake of waste products into, the bloodstream, effectively starving the cells of the body and causing pain and fatigue. This is the best explanation I have come across so far of my condition..." P.S. This rabbit trail didn't help me at al...
