I saw the immunologist yesterday Dr spickett at Newcastle hospital. He said all my symptoms were typical of cfs/m.e. I told him about my vertigo and left sided headaches etc and the 3 shadows on my ct brain scan and he said you can have abnormal findings on brain scans with m.e. I am still unsure because I have had brain mri's and ct scans in the past 12 yrs since having m.e and they have always been clear so why would they show up this time? He did neuro tests and they were all ok.
He took 8 vials of blood for auto immune stuff.
