Allergy and Asthma Proceedings is a peer reviewed publication dedicated to

distributing timely scientific research regarding advancements in the

knowledge and practice of allergy, asthma and immunology. Its primary

readership consists of allergists and pulmonologists.

The goal of the Proceedings is to publish articles with a predominantly

clinical focus which directly impact quality of care for patients with

allergic disease and asthma.

Featured topics include asthma, rhinitis, sinusitis, food allergies,

allergic skin diseases, diagnostic techniques, allergens, and treatment

modalities. Published material includes peer-reviewed original research,

clinical

trials and review articles.

Abstract:New information about the pathophysiology of idiopathic

nonallergic rhinopathy indicates a high prevalence in chronic fatigue syndrome

(CFS). This article shows the relevance of CFS and allied disorders to allergy

practice. CFS has significant overlap with systemic hyperalgesia

(fibromyalgia), autonomic dysfunction (irritable bowel syndrome and migraine

headaches), sensory hypersensitivity (dyspnea; congestion; rhinorrhea; and

appreciation of visceral nociception in the esophagus, gastrointestinal tract,

bladder, and other organs), and central nervous system maladaptations (central

sensitization) recorded by functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).

Neurological dysfunction may account for the overlap of CFS with idiopathic

nonallergic rhinopathy. Scientific advances are in fMRI, nociceptive sensor

expression, and, potentially, infection with xenotropic murine

leukemia-related virus provide additional insights to novel pathophysiological

mechanisms

of the “functional†complaints of these patients that are mistakenly

interpreted as allergic syndromes. As allergists, we must accept the clinical

challenges posed by these complex patients and provide proper diagnoses,

assurance, and optimum care even though current treatment algorithms are

lacking.

good one, yes,damage to sinuses,brain,CNS,PNS,sensory system,

olfactory system,trigiminal nerve,cranial nerves,limbic system. poisioning by

toxin inhalation through the nasal route.

possable infection/inflammation in the spinal cords and CSF.

possable damage to the myelin sleath.possable spinal cord damage,

possable miningitis,fugal,bacteria,or toxic,possable effects to eyes,ears,middle

ear canals,

possable loss of white and/or gray matter in the frontal lobes

possable vasculitis.++++

yep, I can see how it all fits in.
