I just read an article about a new device that can be used to treat sepsis by filtering out specific cytokines that are being over-produced. I know that the FM/a test uses cytokines to identify fibromyalgia (also aware of the controversy surrounding this method). I'm wondering if filtering out specific cytokines could make CFS/ME patients feel better. Obviously is an extreme measure, and not a good long term solution, but if it were tried on CFS/ME patients, and caused an improvement, it would be a great clue on what's going on.
