Guest guest Posted April 30, 2002 Report Share Posted April 30, 2002 I have that fatigue, and occasionally have heart palpitations, sweating, etc, I went to the ER when it first happened...my blood pressure runs low, my blood sugar is always low, but my heart is OK. I was not anemic at all...my hemoglobin is always on the high side of normal...the ER people thought that either my blood sugar was low or I was dehydrated, but my heart was OK. I have nearly passed out several times, it scared the bejesus out of me the first few times it happened, I have heard that this is very common with FMS/CFS. When i'm in a store, I will sit down on the edge of a shelf with my head low until the nausea and sweating pass. When I was 14 I got the chicken pox, right after I recovered, I got some strange severe flu (not the swine flu--for those of us old enough to remember it). I can't remember the name of the flu, but it was an asian name.....I feel that the disease is viral and possibly autoimmune, allergic -- just my opinion-- or best guess as to the way I feel...I definitely do not feel it's psychological also I would not take antibiotics for this (in my case), I don't feel as though it's bacterial. Nobody else in my family has this, but many have rheumatoid arthritis. I have chronic migraines, and occasionally feel one side of my head tingling or numb...it usually passes. Does anyone have trigeminal neuralgia? I have read it's common with FMS patients, I have suffered with this for 3 years, and at times nearly went out of my head with the pain of this..... -2 kmnewberry@... _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
