Just figured out my remaining yet debilitating symptoms appears after I eat fats like olive oil
I've been out for 10 months, had 40 symptoms now down to 7 : fatigue, brain fog, derelization, afternoon crash where I feel like I'm sundowning, light sensitivity, exercise intolerance and PEM.
After stumbling on a post where a guy had me/cfs for 23 years and that he cured it in days after realizing he couldn't convert long term fatty acid chain, I decided to try it. I still ate a little butter but cut every other fats in the last days.
It worked, after even one day I felt better, all my symptoms came way down and I felt normal again. I thought maybe it was seed oil the problem so today I took olive oil ( real, 100% real, organic, not rancid). After an hour and a half my brain fog, derelization, fatigue and afternoon crash came back with a vengeance. I felt great two days ago because my symptoms went down A LOT.
My symptoms also rise with sugar and go way down when I eat sardines. I thought initially it might be due to brain inflammation but I'm wondering if it could be from insulin resistance?
I have been bed bound the first year and second year I'm pretty sedentary. Im wondering if it could be cause by being extremely inactive? Or is it the mold?
Did you developed insulin resistance? Did it go away after a while?
