Dr. Rowe's Spoke to our Group
March 21, 2009 at Sully Gov'tal Center in Chantilly, VA, on
"Update on Orthostatic Intolerance in CFS (and FM)."
Dr. Rowe described the links between disturbances in the control of
blood pressure
and heart rate in those with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
(CFS) and also the practical aspects
of managing symptoms caused
by the circulatory problems in CFS (and similar syndromes).

How we know Dr. Rowe
Elly
and several people our suppport group met Dr. Rowe while participating in
the research in 1994 looking at adults with CFS and Orthostatic
Intolerance for the first time at Hopkins. Many of us and others have staying in contact with Dr. Rowe and followed his reearch and lectures and publications. We've
shown a wonderful video of a presentation to a CFS group in Richmond at
one of our NOVA meetings. That video has helped validate and instruct
so many patients with Chronic Fatiuge Syndrome, FM, and similar
conditions. Some of our stories from the time in the studies, from the video can be read here:
