Extractions: Cure is possible with electromedicine and rebalancing the hormonal/glandular system. If you feel like you have the flu constantly or chronic mononucleosis then you probably have an ongoing viral infection causing Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME). This viral disease was beating me to death for 16 years until I tried this alternative treatment The Epstein Barr virus is a common cause of this disease, and when it (or any other causative virus) is treated with electric current it loses its ability to infect human white blood cells. Without being able to infect cells with their nucleic acids then the viruses are stopped from being able to use the human cells to reproduce themselves. Being left 'free-floating' in the blood serum (fluid), then the white blood cells will eventually take the viruses out of the bloodstream one-by-one (which is their job as immune cells). This type of treatment with electricity presents the most important step to a possible cure. Researchers at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in NY discovered this activity of elecricity against viruses , stopping their ability to attach to human cells receptor sites. The electricity needed was only a scant 50-100 micro-amps (millionths of an ampere) which is not enough to feel. Afterwards they created a

Extractions: by by Giovanni Maciocia Homepage Back Myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) is becoming more and more widespread in Western countries. ME is the name most commonly used in the UK, while in the USA it is now called Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (CFIDS). This condition is also variously called "Chronic Fatigue Syndrome", "Postviral Syndrome", or "Postviral Fatigue Syndrome". I personally make a distinction between "true" ME and "not true" ME which I call "Postviral Fatigue Syndrome", and this distinction (and its significance) will be explained shortly. <0.00001. In the USA, research seems to be oriented more towards the Epstein-Barr virus (the one that causes mononucleosis or glandular fever) as a cause of ME. From the point of view of Chinese medicine, two main conditions explain the pathogenesis of ME: residual pathogenic factor and Latent Heat. One of the main conditions leading to ME is that of "residual pathogenic factor". If external Wind invades the body and is not cleared properly, or if the person fails to rest during an acute invasion of Wind, the pathogenic factor may remain in the Interior (usually as either Heat, Phlegm-Heat or Damp-Heat). Here, on the one hand, it continues to produce symptoms and signs and, on the other, it predisposes the person to further invasions of exterior pathogenic factors because it obstructs the proper diffusing and descending of Lung-Qi. Moreover, it will also tend to weaken Qi and/or Yin, establishing a vicious circle of pathogenic factor and deficiency.

Extractions: c. Bacterial invasion of the CNS typically results in abscess formation, not encephalitis or encephalomyelitis. 3. Pathological Changes a. General description: Multiple and/or widespread areas of CNS involvement occur, as opposed to localized nature of abscess formation. Specific viruses affect specific anatomic areas or subpopulations of cells, a phenomenon called "tropism". An example of this is the predilection of herpes simplex virus to produce lesions in the limbic system, and infection of lower motor neurons by poliovirus. Microscopic changes include: perivascular cuffing by lymphocytes and plasma cells; neuronal necrosis; inclusion bodies; microglial proliferation and glial nodules; hemorrhagic necrosis (common in Herpes simplex encephalitis). Calcification can be detected in some neonates infected in utero with encephalitis-producing agents like CMV and HIV viruses.

Extractions: FOREIGN ANIMAL DISEASES VENEZUELAN EQUINE ENCEPHALOMYELITIS (Peste loca, Venezuelan encephalitis, VEE, VE) Definition Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) is a zoonotic, mosquito-borne, viral disease affecting both Equidae and humans (6,8). In Equidae, infection may produce an acute, fulminating disease that terminates in death or recovery without development of encephalitic signs, or the more classical disease with progressive clinical encephalitis. In human beings, a flulike syndrome predominates with an accompanying high fever and frontal headache. Human deaths may occur in the young or the aged. A wide variety of hosts and vectors may be infected (5,10,13,15). Etiology The etiologic agent of VEE is an alphavirus of the family Togaviridae (formerly the group A arboviruses). . The virions are 60-75 nm in diameter and have an essential lipid membrane. Only minor antigenic variations exist among different VEE virus isolates (10,16). Six subtypes (I, II, III, IV, V, and VI) have been identified within the VEE complex. Within subtype I, only two (A/B and C) of the five variants (A/B through F) have been associated with epizootic activity in equines (5,10,13-15). The other variants (I-D through I-F) and subtypes (II through VI) have been associated with nonequine, sylvatic, or enzootic activity. Infection with one variant or vaccination with attenuated virus generally results in production of neutralizing antibodies and cross-protection of variable duration to infection with the other subtypes and variants (13-15).

Myalgic Encephalomyelitis appears on the World Health Organisation's International Classification of Diseases list (G93.3, ICD-10) as a Neurologic disease. Myalgic Encephalomyelitis is a distinctive clinical syndrome first reported in patients after outbreaks of viral infections in 1950s and was characterised by persistent fatigue, muscle pain (myalgia), symptoms suggestive of brain and spinal cord dysfunction (encephalomyelitis) and conspicuous deterioration of symptoms after physical exertion. Pathologically, ME is an inaccurate term since there is little evidence of ongoing inflammatory activity in the muscles or brain. Post-viral fatigue syndrome was used to describe a similar syndrome where patients could clearly trace the onset of their illness back to a viral infection. However, ME-type symptoms are also known to follow other infections (for example, Lyme disease), post-infective neurologic diseases (such as Common symptoms include: Persistent or relapsing fatigue unrelieved by rest or sleep.

This illness usually follows in the wake of exanthema or after other viral infections or immunisations. There is usually a latent period of days to two to three weeks. This illness was first described 250 years ago by the distinguished English physician, Clifton who noted that it occurred occasionally in patients who had smallpox. The white matter of the brain is predominantly affected and under the microscope it can be seen that there is invasion around small veins by white blood cells from the blood. Where these cells accumulate, myelin is destroyed. The illness has been poorly understood and a variety of terminologies used to describe it, these include post infectious, parainfectious or post vaccinial. The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is frequently abnormal showing an increase in white cells and protein. The electroencephalogram (EEG) is abnormal in most cases showing diffuse slowing. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) typically shows multiple areas of abnormality in the white matter of the brain.

http://epix.hazard.net/topics/animal/eq_encph.htm

Extractions: Viral encephalomyelitis of horses is a group of closely related diseases of Equidae which are transmitted by arthropods (insects), and which cause moderate to high mortality after presenting clinical signs of dysfunction of the nervous system. They are caused by Alphavirus (family Togaviridae) , of which three strains are commonly recognized: Eastern Equine Encephalomyelitis (EEE), Western Equine Encephalomyelitis (WEE) and Venezuelan Equine Encephalomyelitis (VEE) , Human infection can occur, and the disease is of significant public health importance. The viruses are restricted to the Americas, with cases reported from the USA, Canada, Venezuela, Brazil and Argentina. Outbreaks have occurred in Central America. In North America the disease tends to be seasonal due to the changes in mosquito and other insect populations. Spread of the disease between areas by migratory birds may be possible, and encephalitis has been detected in infected birds. In general, mortality is lower with WEE infection (20-30 %) than with EEE or VEE (40-80 %). Wild birds act as a reservoir for the virus, and spread is by insects. Mosquitoes appear the main vector, but mites, ticks and lice may also be implicated. The movement of infected mosquioes between distant areas by high winds has been recorded. Rodents and other small mammals may serve as viral reservoirs for VEE.

Extractions: Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitic (EAE), also called Experimental Allergic Encephalomyelitis, is an animal model of Multiple Sclerosis. Animal models of human diseases are diseases of non-human species (often rodents) which closely resemble their human counterparts and are be studied with a view to better understanding and treating the human form. EAE is not multiple sclerosis, nor is it a single disease in a single species, but its different forms resemble the various forms and stages of MS very closely in a large number of ways. EAE is an acute or chronic-relapsing, acquired, inflammatory and demyelinating autoimmune disease. The animals are injected with the whole or parts of various proteins that make up myelin , the insulating sheath that surrounds nerve cells (neurons) . These proteins induce an autoimmune response in the animals - that is the animal's immune system mounts an attack on its own myelin as a result of exposure to the injection. The animals develop a disease process that closely resembles MS in humans. EAE has been induced in a number of different animal species including mice, rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, macaques, rhesus monkeys and marmosets. For various reasons including the number of

The condition called chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a poorly understood illness associated with chronic symptoms and disability. It is sometimes called myalgic encephalomyelitis, although this term has the disadvantage of implying a cause (inflammation of the brain) that has not been proven. The symptom of fatigue is very common and is reported to be a problem by some 25 per cent of the general population in the UK and USA. The disabling condition of chronic fatigue syndrome is much less common, affecting less than one per cent of the population. Chronic fatigue syndrome is not a new disease. A very similar description was described more than a 100 years ago and was given the name neurasthenia.
