Why... Why...

do we have ME?
ME can be caused by numerous things, mostly physical and mental traumas. The straw that broke the camels back is more usually a virus and serious infection. The physical confusion caused by trying to heal this intruder results in the shut down of all but the most fundamental unconscious reactions, such as breathing and circulating the blood and oxygen around the body. Without the nervous system and stress responses working in conjunction, the healing doesn't take place satisfactorily and the body is stuck in confusion; fight, flight or freeze.

do we have symptoms?
Symptoms are the one way the body has to alert us of danger, something not working properly. A lot of symptoms, rashes or numb toes and fingers, are simply because the energy flow throughout the body has been compromised so severely. Exhaustion and insomnia is quite simply because the body is on such a high alert- def con 1, or tiger in the corner of the room- and this is constant. Physically the systems have forgotten how to recognise danger. Symptoms, light and noise sensitivity, food allergies, chemical sensitivities are there to say "that might be dangerous, be aware because I'm not sure"
