looking for a paper on ME/CFS stress echocardiograms of the heart

[WillowJ]

I was sure I once read a paper saying resting echocardiograms of the heart were normal, but echos upon standing or some other kind of exertion were abnormal.

I cannot find such a paper. Can anyone direct me?

There is some discussion here, maybe one of the articles it mentions is the one:

Have you tried searching the ME Research database:
http://www.meresearch.org.uk/information/researchdbase/index.html

Was it a recent paper or an older (eg early 90s) paper?

thanks for the links! I will look through them.

I think it was an older paper; seems like it was one of those scanned-in pdf's

Gee that sounds really interesting! Anything about that in Cheneys work? It sounds like something he would be on about (from watching his dvds about oxygen and the heart).

I'd be interested in those articles too!
