In the fall of 1995, my life could have been summed up with the following headline, "Former over-achieving, perfectionist, professional, wife, mother, wanna-be actress, and exercise enthusiast bites the dust by succumbing to the Epstein Barr Virus, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue". One year later, I'm happy to report that my priorities have shifted - I stop and smell the roses - and I have the energy to exercise regularly and to fully participate in life.

If you feel drained at the start of your day, if life has lost its bloom due to chronic fatigue, let me help you! If you are a family member or friend of someone who suffers from the Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) and/or chronic fatigue and all its related symptoms, let me help you! You do not have to suffer one minute longer!

Chronic fatigue and immune dysfunction syndrome (CFIDS) at this time is still hard to diagnose. Most medical professionals agree that formal diagnosis depends on meeting several criteria. First, the fatigue must have had a clear onset, not due to exertion and not relieved by rest, and it must hamper work and lifestyle. Second, at least four of the following symptoms must have lasted at least six months: headaches, joint pain, muscle pain, sore throat, tender lymph nodes, poor sleep, protracted exhaustion after exertion, and problems with memory or concentration that interfere with normal daily activities.

Whew! Obviously, you gotta hurt and suffer for awhile before anyone takes your symptoms seriously! Well, for you, it's time to take control, heal, and slowly come back to enjoying life. I don't have any magic pills. I just have my story, what worked for me, and what I've found has worked for many others like me.

So please feel free to email me, and I'll gladly share my diet, lifestyle regimen, and anything else that can help you!

Love and Light,
Kathleen
