I'm going to try this. I've been sick for 15 months

Hi Sarah! I have long Covid too. I am also doing the Perrin Technique with the help from my chiropractor and massage therapist! I have been doing this technique for 8 weeks now. I am glad to see it has helped you too. I am about 85 to 90% recovered! I first got sick April of 2020. I look forward to when we are all fully recovered! Thank you for sharing your experience with the Perrin Technique!

Hi Sarah, I can see your almost out just by the way you present yourself. Just want to thank you for spreading the word.this is the true answer to me/cfs.you don't want to know where I have been. I have this severe. I have made improvements but bieve I have a structural issue which may be hindering any further progress.i live in Canada. Not a great area to live if a person is seeking help.you are a true gem for all that you are doing!!!!

Thanks for this information and so glad you’re recovering! 😊

Very interesting. Thank you.

It's fantastic that you're drawing attention the importance of the lymphatic system in CFS/ME but the the dysfunction doesn't occur because of physical inactivity due to symptoms per se according to Perrin's theory. Acute or chronic stressors cause the lymphatics draining away from the brain to collapse and the flow starts to occur in reverse way before the onset of chronic symptoms

​@@sarahchristine7869my theory is that there is a collagen defect in CFS. Why do we break when others don't. We have a lower allostatic load. A lower tolerance. Many many patients have a form of EDS or subclinical EDS . This lends itself to weak connective tissue. It's disposes you to easier insults to the body and nervous system. Look at the RCCCX theory. It's convincing. The oerrins technique is definitely a good tool in your box and for some milder sufferers it may be all you need. But the collagen tissue defect is there. Ehlers danlos is way more common than previously thought and the criteria for diagnosis are no longer fit for purpose. Problems in tissue lead to leaky gut, predisposing you to autoimmunity. Also means your more likely to be attacked by viruses. Also means you will be attacked by all the toxins in our environment. Because of the collagen defect, we have leaky blood brain barriers that leads to many inflammatory problems as viruses and heavy metals can get into the brain. Indeed CFS suffers seem to suffer from selenium depletion meaning heavy metals are in the body and brain. Another problem with a virus that gets into eds tissue is mast cell degranulation. Most people with CFS have MCAS..depending on where your mast cells degranulate ( they're hyperactive and trying to kill these viruses or toxins) will show up as issues in your body. Reflux , contractions like IBS, breathing issues, tachycardia,palpitations, urinary and bowel problems and of course if you get degranulation in the brain then it's surges if anxiety and adrenaline. Also our metabolism switches to catabolic and we begin to eat our own bodies muscle. This used to be known as adrenal fatigue. Again some of this is structural. There's issues in the spine, likely coming from eds type architecture and oerrins will help with that. The root defect in my opinion is a collagen defect. That's ground zero. Everything flows from there. Virus, toxins, weak connective tissue creating negative feedback loops. Overactive nervous system because they're made weaker and also have mast cells degranulating them. There are things you can do to relieve symptoms and in some cases cure yourself completely. Here's a heads up. Have you heard of Whitney dafoe? His dad is part creator of the human genome project and came out of retirement to try and cure his very sick son. He's doing great work in his non for profit organization " the open medicine foundation". He has novel laureates working for him and they have a working theory for a possible cure. If any of your guys can afford a bit of money here or there it would be worth donating. If not. Follow their work. They're making great strides

Thank you so much for your knowledge!!!!!!!!!!!

Good information and a really good job explaining it as well

Great video! I have just started the perrin technique and it's making me feel awful for a couple of days after, but I'm hoping it is working because of this! It's interesting you say there is a final trigger because this happened to me. After years of emotional stress, panic attacks, flight or fight syndrome, vit d deficiency and allergies a virus kicked my butt in November 2019 and I never fully recovered eventually quitting my job. I have issues with lymph drainage in my neck and breasts but also very painful knees from the lymph glands there. Feeling positive the perrin technique will help me fingers crossed xxx

Very well done and thank you so much for posting this.

Good info!!!!!!

Thx for the info!

Thank you so much for this video. I have long Covid chronic fatigue and it makes your life a misery - it's not just feeling tired, it's feeling unwell as well as tired! I just tried the hot/cold shower thing - how many times do you recommend alternating between hot and cold in one shower?

Thanks again! Because of you I’m getting a Lymphatic massage. Your videos have given me some excellent tips. Do you recommend any supplements? Thanks again

Really interesting video Sarah, thanks for posting. I am 18 months into my recovery and am managing 3 x 10 min walks a day but I am stuck. I've only just come to learn about the importance of the lymphatic system and its impact on health. What is your thoughts on mitochondria? From what I have experienced or perhaps have felt is happening, it feels very much like the mitochondria struggle to make the energy to sustain activity and are sehow down regulated due to the immune system dysregulation. Do you see a link between what you have outlined in the video re CNS and mitochondrial function?

@sarahchristine7869

Yes. I agree about mitochondria, and think that as the autonomic nervous system regulates, (through a holistic approach to healing) the mitochondria should start to function optimally again.

Can i use a massage wand for lymphatic massage

Thank you for this video. How are now please? I started yesterday and i am very fatigued today. How many days did you experience fatigue before feeling well ? Thank you

thank you, nice comprehension! I wonder how anything can change the direction of this flow, both triggered and reverse. How can we tell the flow is back to normal 100%?

This is a common symptom of Long Covid/CFS. I’m going to talk a bit about this in my next video. What has helped me is taking a holistic approach to heal the nervous system dysfunction, which is at the root of all of the symptoms. I talk about the different things you can do in my other videos. I have magnesium before bed and a small amount of melatonin. I dim the lights in my room an hour before bed, and make sure I’m unwinding and relaxing during that hour. I try to get out in the morning light each morning, which can help you sleep better. And I try to just have a relaxed approach. If I’m stressed about not sleeping, then I won’t sleep well!

I can hardly walk if I move an arm i get more symptoms Heart, pain no energy

hello i love these tips i do some but i will try the others you mentioned to see if anything will help. Im on 8 months with long covid :p so anoyying. Can i ask are you fully recovered? or still symptoms lingering?
