Guest guest Posted October 8, 2000 Report Share Posted October 8, 2000 This also might be a reaction to scents & chemicals from Multiple Chemical sensitivity. Many of our immune systems cannot handle toxins after we get sick with cfids. I am alright most of the time in my safe home environment, but get those same symptoms you get when I go out in the world & get exposed to scents & chemicals. I try to wear a respirator when I know I will be in a toxic environment, or avoid those places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 8, 2000 Report Share Posted October 8, 2000 Situations that are normally adrenaline producing can cause a drop in blood pressure in people with CFS, causing that spacey feeling. It's caused by dysautonomia. The commonly recognized symptoms of CFS that a lot of doctors follow are sadly lacking, and fail to mention things like this to their patients. And yes, it is alarming. This last week I was driving home from the store (grocery shopping is always stressful for me, and lately driving has been as well) and my vision in my right eye began to fade. I found myself trying to drive down the road with sight only in one eye, and I decided to pull over and wait to let it pass. Since that episode, I've decided not to drive any more till I can get this adequately addressed, and my husband agrees. lindaj@...

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2000 Report Share Posted October 8, 2000 , Your symptoms can be from CFS. It sounds like hypoxia or that your brain isn't getting enough oxygen. Try OxyMoxy available at some health food stores. If you benefit from this, you may want to consider oxygen therapy or getting an ISAC panel done. Steve B.
