Description
Harald Burgard reports a 2024 case of lasting recovery after blood filtration therapy in chronic fatigue syndrome. The illness, called ME/CFS, brings deep fatigue, crashes after effort, and foggy thinking. No accepted cure exists yet. Care usually aims at easing symptoms and pacing energy.
His patient was a forty-nine-year-old woman ill for more than fifteen years. Past therapies had failed her. Labs first checked for lasting viral infections and other markers. She then received double-filtration apheresis eight times. Her symptoms eased into a clinical remission afterward. A single case cannot prove a therapy, but it invites careful trials.
