Chronic Fatigue Sindrom !!!

Thanks for the reply!
I answered your questions but you can also read what i said in my first post.
1. Age,sex,weight,body and face appearance, country, occupation.
ANS.

Age=29, Male, weight: 95kg/209lb, hight: 2,00m/6feet 7in, athletic, face appearance: “Inverted Triangle or Heart Shaped Face”, country: Romania, occupation: civil engineer (i have worked in an design office, now I don’t have a job because of CFS)

2. Main complaints and other associated troubles.

a)Where is the trouble; The exact locality of the complaint like hands,legs etc; duration of trouble.
There is no exact location, is everywhere. I don’t have a specific location for pain.
Sometimes my back hurts. I have Lower back pain after I eat (it does not feel like bone or muscle pain, it seems to be in interior, some organ, maybe the large intestine). Also I have bloating after I eat. I used to have a lot of intestinal gases a few months ago, now only a little).
My legs feel very heavy and a have a constant low pain in the lower part of my legs (muscles).
b)What exactly do you feel, Sensation as pain, how pain feels or burn etc.
The pain is not the problem, is the constant fatigue.
I feel a very accentuated physical and mental exhaustion.

c)What are the factors that causes this trouble according to you.
There is absolutely none. If you look at what I written in my first post i explained there the stages according to my age.

d)Condition under which the complaint is reduced or you feel better like,cold or hot application,cold or hot weather,position as standing,walking,rest etc.

Hot water makes me feel much better but just for a few minutes after the hot shower.

e)Condition under which the complaint is increased like,cold or hot application,cold or hot weather,position as standing,walking,rest etc.

Cold weather makes it worse, very cold weather makes it worse too.
When I sit down I feel like moving, when I stand I feel like sitting down. I’m always tired no matter what I do. If I walk more than 200m it gets worse.
I used to like cold weather, now no.

f)Any other complaint any where in the body.

The skin on my legs (lower part, under knee) feel dry.
I have sometimes shortness of breath.
A few months ago my hair use to fall off, now its stopped.

g)Onset time of troubles in detail, i.e which came first, after that what problem and so on.

I have this problem for more approximately 5 or 6 years. It began with low fatigue, intense leg pain (not constant, alternating between intense and low pain) and a drop in mental energy.
In the last year things started to go much worse. All the symptoms aggravated 300% or more.
I have to mention that in my whole life I only had a few years in which I have been in a decent physical and mental shape. That was between 20 and 23, 24 (now I am 29).
Before the age of 20 I always had low energy, never been good at all in any sports, very week muscles, and a constant anxiety. I had been socially retarded and had problems in concentrating. I have been in a awkward family, my father was a violent man, my mother was a hysterical woman with pretty low iq and I have not been loved by any of my parents.
When I reached the age of 20 things changed (I was already in college). I did not noticed then, but now when I look back I realize that. Every thing started to go good for me, started to make friends, started dating womens (for a few years had been really good at this chapter), and then I had a long relationship with a girl. I started doing better in school. I began to practice sports and got myself in a really good physical shape. Everything was good from a physical and mental point of view.
When I reached the age of 24 things started to slowly go down again. Same as when they got good, I did not noticed until later.

h)Treatment method adopted and its result.

Vitamins, amino acids, other nutritional supplements, no results.
I have been to a homeopath and prescribed me “Natrium M and Lycopodium”. Actually, when I visited the homeopath I was in one of those good days. I took the remedy (started with Natrum. 30C) and felt good for 3 days(that was unusual because in general I had 1, maximum 2 good days). After taking Natrum M., when I whas sitting in bed I just felt like my blood or something whas going up form my legs to my boddy and I was feeling better when that whas happening. After those 3 days I was sitting in bet late at night again, I started to have anxiety again and felt how my blood (don’t know if it was blood) when going in reverse, from my body to my legs.

3. History of diseases in family.
My father has varices. Both my parents are anxious (my mother much worse, she is an hysterical woman).
No other serious health problems in my family. 3 of my grandparents are over 90 years old, the other one died at 72.

If sometimes (rarely) I drink a lot, the next day i have some type of diarrhea(not really diarrhea, just that the stool feels more satisfactory, more easy, like i eliminate more and the consistency is more soft than usual) , but after that i feel better, can't explain why, my stomach feels lighter and i feel better overall. Is like alcohol cleans my intestines or something. But i can't drink that much every day :)

In the past I had bleeding in stool, bun now is very rare and just a little blood.

Bad sleep, takes me long time to go to sleep, I wake up tired. I go to bet around 3 AM to 5AM and wake up at 11AM to 2PM

I rarely have dreams.

13. Sweat

My feet have more sweat and odour compared with majority of people, but it always been like this.
In the summer my face sweats a lot. It always been like this, but now is worse.

14. Weather
a)Tolerance to heat and cold, dryness, humidity, weather changes, sun,
foggy weather, wind drafts, closed rooms, etc.
I use to like cold weather. No I don’t.
I never liked very hot weather.
I always liked rainy weather in spring or summer time. It makes me feel better.
If is hot and high humidity i can't stand it, i sweat alot and I can not breathe. But usually in summer time is not that hot when is raining and the humidity is not that high.
I like foggy weather.
I guess i like humidity, but not in combination with very hot or very cold weather.
The sun makes my skin tan very quickly. I lose the tan very hard. I can say that my hands look more dark compared to the rest of my body all year long.
15. Mental Status
a)The quality of the patient's life in relationship to loved ones, family, friends and colleagues. Overall quality of energy available to function in daily life, and under various circumstances.
I have a bad relation with my parents since childhood.
In the last year i lost the connection with most friends because i feel too bad to go out with them.
Very low mental energy.
b)Any mental/emotional shocks occurring in the patient's life-grief, major financial losses separation from loved ones, death, identity crisis and other stress in life.
I had no sudden major incidents.
The only grief is related with the bad relations that i had and still have with my parents.
c)Memory,ability to concentrate/comprehend.
Very low. My short term memory was very high over average, my long term memory was normal. Now both are very low, i just forget a lot of things. I forget what i wanted to say in a conversation.
My ability to concentrate is very very low now, is like my brain has slowed down a lot.
d)Are you fearful of anything eg: Animals, people, being alone, darkness, death, disease, robbers, thunder, storm, high places.
No fear, just a constant anxiety about almost anything.
e)Are you anxious about anything: if yes, give details.
Yes, very anxious about a lot of things. I have a constant state of nervosity about just all things.
f)Are you impatient.
Yes.
g)Are you doubtful or suspicious.
Not very suspicious.
h)Are you hurt easily (emotionally)how do you react. Does it cause hatred/revenge.
It use to be hard to hurt me, now i get easily offended. I react by being angry about it and I hate those persons.
The persons that i hate most are my parents. Beside them i don't really have a long term hate for anyone else.
i)Does your pride get hurt easily.
Yes, but it used to be better in this way.
j)Are you depressed, if so, reason/circumstances.
I have a moderate depression, but is just a secondary effect of my physical and mental exhaustion. So depresion is not the main issue here. Nobody can be happy having CFS.
k)Do you like to share your problems.
I use to share them but at some point i just got tired of talking about them because most people don't leasen, some leasen but don't really care, and the few ones that leasen and care can't understand.
l)Effect of consolation.
Zero, does not help, how would help..
Exemple: if you have a bad tooth pain can it go away if someone is consolidating you? Don't think so..

m)Do you ever become suicidal when? How.
No, but is an option in the future if things got even worse.
n)Memory- quality if poor, for what ( eg. Names, places, people, what you read).
I forget over 90% of what happens in a movie that i saw a few months ago.
I forget thing that i use to be good at, like some settings at electronics. Anyway, i don't have the energy to concentrate to do that.
I don't forget name and places, but having this low mental energy is harder to remember easy things and it takes me longer and it feels like a struggle.
o)Do you weep easily, effect of weeping, ie, does it make you worse or better.
Last time i weep was at the age of 10 or 11. My retarded father used to beat me, and in a day i put myself in front of the mirror and i said to myself: "From today you are a man and men don't cry". So from that day i never cried (weep). That thing had some effect on my bastard father because it gives him least satisfaction when he beat me and it started to do it more rarely.
p)Are you easily irritated. What makes you angry, how do you express it.
Yes, easily, i just get angry about it.
q)Are you destructive.
No
r)How good are you in making decisions.
Bad, i think 100 times and still i'm not decided
s)Do you like company or like to remain alone.
Sometimes alone, sometimes i like company but only with old friends, not persons that i barely know.
t)How seriously are you affected by disorder and uncleanness in your surroundings.
I have periods when i am concerned about uncleanness, but now my energy level is so low that i really don't care about this.
u)How does failure appear to you?
Failure.. everything is a failure right now because i can't do much, i function at under 10% mental and physical. If my overall energy level goes lower than now i'm really scared about my future, not that now is being any good.
v)Are there any matters that you deeply dislike?
Stupidity and ignorance all around me in general.
w)What activities you deeply like? How does it affect your mood?
I don't really have energy to do anything, so is really no activity that makes me feel better.
x)Are you affectionate? How does others sorrow affect you?
I'm not an affectionate person, but i am a compassionate person. I understand other peoples pain when others fail to do so.
y)Any present fears in your life or future.
Yeah, the fear that i'm not gonna get well.
z)Any present life or future life desires.
Yes, to recover my health and to do a lot of things with my life.


VERY IMPORTANT: All this mental problems (“15 Mental Status”) are happening since i got sick. I used to be a very strong person a few years ago.

Hello,
18 Days have passed since I took the remedy.
I have no improvement, nothing has changed.
I had 2 or 3 good days after 7 days from the moment I took the remedy. As I said earlier, sometimes I have 1 or 2 good days. Just before those 3 good days I took some Vitamin E (large doses), and then I had mild diarrhea dor 2 days.
I think that those 3 good days have more to do with the vitamin E and/or the diarrhea than it has to do with the homeopathic remedy. In my second post I said that when I have those stomach problems (mild diarrhea/soft stool then I feel somehow better for a period).
Lately I tend to believe that my problems derived from some sort of gut dysfunctions(my personal opinion).

Hello,
The 12 days have passed. The last 3 or 4 days I felt a little better, but nothing spectacular. The first 3 hours in the morning is still bad, after that I feel a little better for a few hours. Then, after 5 PM I feel really bad. If I fall asleep for 1 hour or 2 sometimes o feel a little better.
Overall is a little better, but I can’t say is a big difference, and only in the last 3 or 4 days. Of Course, it could be that is just one of those good days and could be just a coincidence, maybe it has something to do with the homeopathic remedy, maybe not.
What should I do next?!

I don’t know if I mentioned this, but I feel better from hot weather and feet massage, but only for a short period of time.
Also I have a thin voice, but in the days when I feel really good my voice tends to become more thick and deep, I can breathe deeper and can speak louder.
When I was 8, 9 years old I had boils on skin that use to appear once a year on different places on my body. I followed 2 treatments for that (I think they where some kind of vaccine). The second did the job and the boils stopped.

Hello,
Thank you for your reply!
Right now I can't find Colchicum 10 M in my country, I need to order it online from another country and this may take some time. Firstly i need to find a website that delivers the product to my country, after that to make the order online, and the whole process may take from 3 to 5 weeks. It is possible that I may not be able to procure it.
What should I do in this time. Should I take another dose of Colchicum 200 C?
Colchicum 200 C what I took so far was in pill form. Can i dilute them to achieve 10 M?

No, the maximum that is available here is 200C. Can i use distilled water to dilute a 200C pills?

Hello,

I did how you said, i took a single dose.
In the first day, before taking the remedy, my tongue looks like: "White coating" (slightly less white compared with the tongue in the picture).
Small changes in 3 days, i could say that the white coating is slightly less visible (10, 15 % less), so hardly a visible change.

No improvement...
The color of dark circles is the same, dark gray.
