One of the most discussed and misunderstood disorders in medicine today is Chronic Fatigue & Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (CFIDS) and Fibromyalgia (FM).
You will see that the symptoms and possible causes are numerous, but the bottom line is that you are always chronically fatigued.
At the Texas Institute of Functional Medicines, all of the possible disorders are eliminated with a combination of lab test and electrodermal screening. In a very high percentage of the cases we find what is causing the disorder.
The number one underlying cause we have found that is connected to CFIDS, is toxic heavy metals, which causes an imbalanced immune system. This often allows a commonly found virus in 95% of the world population, Epstein Barr virus, to become active.
There are other associated "bugs", but they are all opportunistic infections, meaning they exist in the blood stream because the immune system cannot keep them in check.
A commonly occurring side effect of CFIDS is Fibromyalgia (FM); meaning muscle aches. We have found that muscles ache because of a lack of oxygen and nutrients, and waste removal is occurring due to hypercoagulation; or thickened blood that cannot get to the muscles. One of our specialties is determining what is causing Hypercoagulation in your body.
We also offer IV Therapies (including the Myer's Cocktail and many others) that have been proven to increase your energy level!
