I think that it is in a significant amount of people with ME/CFS. Especially in those with multiple diseases like MCAD, SFNP, EDS and Dysautonomias.
Please remember, there are no foolproof ways to diagnose mitochondrial disorders (especially secondary mitochondrial disorders, but we are also far away for diagnosing all primary genetic mitochondrial disorders) at this point in time.
Mitochondrial disorders are a group of disorders with a vast spectrum of pathologies.
Please remember that in those with diagnosed mito disease, basically all (yes, including PEM for many) symptoms that are seen in ME/CFS can be seen.
Also, Dysautonomias, SFNP, MCAD and for whatever reason even EDS are more often than not seen in these patients according to anecdotal evidence and also literature.
