I don't have any questions, I just wanted to thank you for bringing life back to me.

I was so sick and now I am feeling as good as I did twenty years ago! It has been a long battle: no energy, aches and pains going from one Dr. to the next. They told me it was anything from arthritis to depression; they had me on steroids for three years... All behind me now!

I just don't know how to thank you. I think it would be wonderful if you could just be everywhere with your caring heart. Information and the real reason behind all of the bad, sick days that so many of us have had.

Sincerely, Jessica...@telusplanet.net

Fatigue. Trauma. Cortisol. How Are They Related?

As many as 2.5% of adults in America have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Not much is known about the disorder. However, researchers now believe that childhood trauma may play a role.

113 patients with chronic fatigue syndrome and 124 healthy patients who were used as controls were the result of this research. A variety of questions were asked. Cortisol hormones were tested. Screening was also allowed.

Participants with chronic fatigue syndrome were reported to have greater levels of childhood drama. Chronic fatigue syndrome patients were also more likely to have anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder.

Researchers believe that chronic fatigue syndrome patients are biologically susceptible to childhood trauma. Another piece of evidence found abnormalities in the interaction between the nervous and endocrine system. This is thought to be a biological pathway by which beginner experiences influenced adult vulnerability towards illness.
