[I don't know why this is listed as my blog, this below is my response to another blogger, Genevieve? Who may be off the forum now, or her blog may have been removed and my response put in its place? Anyway, the comments below are probably to the original blog post, now missing... --Kurt]
Sorry you are sad. This illness can be pretty frustrating. So many of us have seemingly tried it all and not been helped much. Interesting about TCM, is there a protocol you are trying for that?
In my view the past year has been the best year yet for CFS because of all the new research findings, and I do not mean XMRV. There are so many new directions to look and I sincerely believe we are getting close to some answers.
My big picture is that CFS takes us out of reality, the reality we have known all our lives no longer works, so part of our challenge is to reconnect with something outside our own illness, to be part of some reality outside ourselves.
