Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Myalgic Encephalitis: It's Mitochondria, Not Hypochondria

Must buy and must read if suffering from post viral fatigue or chronic fatigue syndrome. This book meaningfully impacted my symptoms in a. short time. That almost sounds like a miracle cure - it is not. But it really did help. I would give this 10 stars.The hyper supplementation approach advocated in the book yielded immediate results for me (also available on the web). I added the supplements individually and found that Ribose had an instant impact - alleviating my 'allergy' type symptoms, helping to curb post exertion malaise, and I stopped using my reliever inhaler - which I was using every night.It is not a cure, but the book provides a working theory as to what is happening with the condition and why Ribose might help + other supplements. It genuinely worked for me.The book provides explanation and workable theories. I find them interesting and plausible. I hold a degree in engineering - and am applying critical thinking here. My Harley Street consultant was open to me trying the approaches but said it the book is not backed by science. But the Ribose worked, and conventional accepted medicine has no explanation for that.I think/hope the theories in this book become more accepted in the next few years.Dr Myhill is a personal hero for me.

I have been ill with ME and Chronic pain since 2006. I realised a very long time ago that my GP was useless - they really do not have any clue about how to treat this condition, so since 2008 I have taken responsiblility for my own health and recovery and I have had some success. Using the Bell CFS ability scale (in the book) I have gone from a 10 in 2008 and currently I am in the 40-50 range. My goal is to move out of this range. I do/have done/tried/do a mulitude of treatments/diets/supplement/lifestyle changes and along the way read a ton of books over the years. Many of those programmes have helped but this book, for me anyway pulls together a lot of the information I already knew into one comprehensive package but it also provides me with new information in a way that I can follow easily. I really had not done much on energy delivery and that chapter resonated with me. I started taking the supplements this week and while my body is still adapting to the programme, I am sure this is going to help as my sleep is already improving eg instead of waking at 2.00am and staying awake for hours. I am now sleeping through the night!I am not following all aspects of Dr Myhill's programme but taking it one step at a time and see what improves and what does not. Recovering from this illness is not easy and it does require a lot of effort, in my experience there is no quick fix but I am proof that you can improve and my goal is to keep on going. Thank you Dr Myhill.

Quite expensive. There is lots of advice and complex methods to use not sure this doctor should be writing this for the patients. I question if she knows whose she’s treating.

An excellent book on the subject of M.E. written by an emanant doctor. I should add, that this is only in my humble opinion, as there is now much more documented research being done on the subject.

Thank you Dr Sarah Myhill, an excellent book.Aged 69, from an ME sufferer since 1996, after an horrendous Viral Illness from which i have never fully recovered, (moderate to severely affected, too ill to work since falling ill).I much appreciate your book, help & support you give to ME sufferers.

Bought for my husband. He is impressed by the knowledge and advice given in this book. Well worth reading and possibly, following.

It is packed with information that makes 100 % sense. Thank you Dr Myhill.

This book helped me make sense of my condition and helped me when I feel the medical profession had done the limited things they could for me.Since starting the supplements, I have improved enough to go back to work (after spending a year in bed).I have not been able to follow the diet recommended in this book. I did try, bit felt horrific and had a seizure. My consultant believe there is an issue with how my body is using sugar.On the back of this book, I have managed to persuade my Neurologist to test my Mitochondra which I would not of had the confidence to do without this book.The only down side is the supplements are expensive.
