"The researchers speculate that these two opposing nerve signals may work in tandem to maintain a kind of metabolic equilibrium. The sympathetic nervous system switches fat-burning processes on, while the sensory neuron pathway turns the process off."

Since ME can alter neurological functions, this could be why some PWME experience weight change.
