I recieved a PM today, Saying that the symptoms Tills showing sound like those of M.E (Thank You :wink Can bunsters get it do you know? :? Just that I researched the symptoms ...
Muscle symptoms include exercise intolerance and post-exertional malaise (i.e. feeling shattered the day after undue physical activity), pain/myalgia (present in around 75% of people) and fasciculations (visible twitching of the muscles which sometimes includes blepharospasm/eyelid twitching).
Till always needs lots of time to recover after a short play session
Brain and Central Nervous System symptoms include cognitive dysfunction (problems with short-term memory, concentration and maintaining attention), clumsiness, disequilibrium likened to 'walking on rubber', and word finding abilities. Problems with control of the autonomic nervous system results in palpitations, sweating episodes and symptoms associated with low blood pressure/postural hypotension (e.g. fainting).
As you know, she's often 'out of it' and clumsy too
Symptoms which suggest on-going abnormalities in immune system function include sore throats, enlarged glands, joint pains, headaches, problems with temperature control and intermittent flu-like feelings.
Not unusual for her to drag her back legs, but not really anythinng else linked to this
Some people also develop emotional lability or mood swings and features of clinical depression as time goes on.
One thing that has been apparent throughout her illness is how depressed she has been, and we've also noticed significant mood swings
ME/CFS symptoms tend to fluctuate in severity throughout the course of a day and people often report that they have both 'good days' and 'bad days', although the term 'good' is often used in a relative sense.
Couldn't be more perfectly described in Tillys case
Could be barking up the wrong tree completely, but How odd is that?!! :?
Thanks, Becki Xx
