RES: IACFS/ME Conference Reports: the Brain

Many researchers think the problems in the brain or central nervous system
probably play a key role in ME/CFS. Some of the most interesting research
in the past couple of years has focused on the brain and the Ottawa
conference was no exception.

At the conference we saw research findings begin to focus on specific areas
of the brain, a spinal fluid study suggesting a brain injury is leaking
proteins into the spinal fluid, a nasal study demonstrating more whacky
autonomic nervous system results and a paper suggest that for some
patients, it may all be in the nose=85=85
