“Chronic  Fatigue  Syndrome, CFS”

“Myalgic  Encephalomyelitis, M.E.”

“Chronic  Fatigue  and  Immune  Dysfunction  Syndrome, CFIDS”

An unfortunate name for an unfortunate and devastating disease.   CHRONIC FATIGUE SYNDROME, CFS, does not even begin to describe the whole story about the suffering  of millions of people who have been diagnosed with this  illness.   What is more the word “fatigue”  trivializes and minimizes the seriousness of this horrendous disease.

CFS involves much more than merely being tired or fatigued.   CFS is a very painful and debilitating disease.  Conventional medicine does not offer a treatment that works, much less a cure for it.

Some symptoms that I remember:

PROFOUND AND DEBILITATING EXHAUSTION that does not allow you to participate in “normal” day to day activities.  The exhaustion is made worst by any exertion and it is not relieved by rest. You know that whatever activity you decide to do, 

YOU  WILL PAY THE PRICE.   For example, if you are raising children, every morning you will wake up praying for strength to get up and take care of them.  If you manage to take them to school, you come back home, collapse in bed, hoping to gather some energy so you can go back to pick them up. And sometimes, when you are driving, you get lost and confused on the way to school.  Does this sound familiar?

As You Scan Your Mind and Body, do you recognize that you are suffering these symptoms?

You feel so weak, that when you bend down to pick up your small child,  you feel like life is pouring out of your body,  you feel drained.

• You appear “healthy” and people around you cannot understand your situation, even though you are feeling very sick  inside

• My own history with Chronic Fatigue and Immune Dysfunction Syndrome, allows me to say, that one of the most
  devastating symptoms is “FEELING LIKE I WAS DYING INSIDE” every day and every night,  there was never a day when  I felt “well.”  For many, many years that sensation did not improve until I began using EFT.

• Hopelessness may accompany CFS/M.E., as was tragically illustrated by one sufferer who despaired and committed suicide.  But death is not the answer.  As a bereaved friend said:  “I know what she really wanted. She didn’t want to die.  She wanted to live- but to live free from suffering. And that must be our goal.

• Insomnia.  You are exhausted, but you cannot fall asleep.  When you finally fall asleep,  you wake up unrefreshed and exhausted.

• Headaches of a new type and severity

• Muscular pain, night time paralysis and morning stiffness

• Multi-joint  pain (without redness or swelling)

• Cervical or armpit lymph node tenderness and swelling

• Sore throat, chronic cough, allergies

• Persistent low grade fever

• Problems with short term memory loss or concentration

• Irritable bowel syndrome

• Hypoglycemia

• Depression may occur when patient has been sick for so long. He realizes that nothing is helping him

• Anxiety

• Night sweats

• Tingling and Numbing

• Allergies or sensitivities to food, odors, chemicals, medications,  perfumes

• Light and noise sensitivity

• Dizziness, dry eyes,  watery eyes,  dry mouth,  ear aches,  irregular heartbeat,  jaw pain

• Shortness of breath and weight change

• I remember that if someone lightly tapped me on the arm, I felt pain that echoed throughout my whole body.
  
• What about you?
  

The CENTER FOR DISEASE CONTROL stated regarding Chronic Fatigue Syndrome:

Feelings of anger, guilt, anxiety, isolation an abandonment are common in CFS patients.  While it is normal to have such feelings, unresolved emotions and stress can make symptoms worse, interfere with pharmacological therapies and make recovery harder.  But EFT goes one more step further  to say that the unresolved emotions and stress are the root cause of the symptoms.

Dr. Eric Robins,  who uses EFT in his daily medical practice,  agrees with his theory.  Dr. Robins says: “At least 85% of medical problems are physical manifestations of how stress,  anxiety,  and past traumas are held in and processed by the body.                      

I recommend that patients ask themselves questions like:

a) What unresolved issues exist in my life that may be contributing to this disease?

b) What kinds of things am I stressing myself out over.  The best technique to address these issues and to clear them out of the body is EFT.”

Dr. Bruce Lipton, Cell Biologist says: “EFT is a simple powerful process that can profoundly influence gene activity, health and behavior.”

“How  Does  EFT Work  with Chronic  Fatigue  Syndrome/Myalgic  Encephalomyelitis Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome?”

EFT EMOTIONAL FREEDOM TECHNIQUES work because they address the unresolved negative emotions that may be contributing to illness.

When anger, guilt, shame and fear are repressed and unchecked,  the stress of these issues weaken the immune system,  thus making way for illnesses like CFS/M.E., CFIDS, Fibromyalgia and other diseases to develop.  We can help you  to collapse these negative issues,  so you can allow your Mind and Body and your  Immune System  to do its repair work, which improves your health and well-being.

P.S. Think about it for  a moment…  As  you remember your own experience with CFS/M.E, and how hard it has been for you.  Even right now, you are probably  suffering some symptoms… Would You rather continue dragging yourself through life feeling miserable, with no energy and overwhelmed with pain or…                                                                                                                                         

Are you ready to start painting a new story?  where you as the main character feel tremendous joy of being alive,  you feel this dynamic energy flowing through your mind and body and you now know that if any symptom comes up,  you can deal with it because you feel empowered with your new  Mind and Body Techniques that can help you feel better.

P.P.S   Remember, You deserve to feel better.
