They also proposed that the waxing and waning symptoms sometimes found in FM – and one could certainly include ME/CFS here – could reflect this process of all-fiber dieback and renewal. https://www.healthrising.org/blog/2022/04/29/natural-killer-small-nerve-fibers-fibromyalgia/ The above is something I've been wondering for quite a while, a possible cycle of perpetual damaging and healing and then damaging again.

Castorp Posted May 9, 2022 Report Share Posted May 9, 2022 Thank you for posting about this study, @MTRJ75. I find it really interesting. I hope that these findings can shed light on the role played by autoimmunity in SFN and dysautonomia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted May 9, 2022 Report Share Posted May 9, 2022 Had a discussion about neuropathy pain in my left leg with my vascular Dr. Hope was it would have subsided a bit with exercise but it did not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
