ME/CFS as a Mitochondrial Disease

ME/CFS As A Mitochondrial Disease.
ME/CFS is a mitochondrial disease like no other. There are lots of studies that implicate mitochondrial problems; Dr. Kuratsune and carnitine. Dr. Versnon and genomics; Dr. DeMeileir, Dr. Pall, Dr. Cheney and many others. But this problem cannot be studied in tiny fragments. It is time for a good study to look at the different steps of the body’s ability to generate energy. Lets hope we get to see it within our lifetimes.

Another nail in the coffin of those hard-headed people who insist that the problem is just depression or laziness.  Being a bit younger than Dr. Bell, I do hold out hope that within my lifetime they will find themselves laughed at as loudly and derisively as they have laughed at us.

Even I can understand that you won't find what you're not looking for -- testing for measles won't reveal that the patient has a broken leg, and x-raying his leg won't show that he's dying of AIDS.  But these so-called great medical minds think that if it doesn't show up on basic first-round blood tests, there's no reason to look any further, just consign the patient to the psychiatric trash heap.
