Natural healing of AUTOIMMUNITY in ME/CFS, Long Covid? Here's why it could be possible.....

A key secondary component of chronic fatigue syndrome / myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME/CFS) involves excessive functional autoantibodies. These autoantibodies are capable of blocking core bodily processes, and contributing to exercise intolerance, post-exertional malaise and crashes. Treatments like immunoadsorption or the up-coming Berlin Cures can likely treat this autoimmune problem, but we should also ask whether or not it is possible for these autoantibodies to reduce on their own, thereby contributing to healing and improved functionality. In this video, I discuss whether this might be possible, talking about the four month life cycle of autoantibodies as well as a study that showed the Nurosym device / vagus nerve stimulator successfully reduced autoantibodies in POTS patients over two months.

Interesting video as always Patrick .I tried the Vagus nerve stim thing using the ear clip and I didn't get very far with it . I only did it a handful of times and each time it left me very nauseous for hours afterwards .. I also did DNRS which helped me with anxiety but not really any other of the myriad of symptoms . I feel like I could try again with a 6 month yoga ,meditation plan and I also have severe osteoarthritis in my lower back which has been very painful for years
I wonder often if I got back surgery that took some of that pain away if it would help calm everything overall in the long run ...Something to think about . I am looking forward to watching your talk with Gez Medinger
