I have had cfids/fm/mcss for years and the past year I started suffering bizarre tremors and eye pain. Then I would have visual difficulties along with vertigo. I now have tremors that are there when I awake in the morn.I cannot walk from shaking. And it is throughout the body. The past year my eyeballs have been swelling. Not the lids but the eyeballs themselves. I have been checked for optical nueritis. The ms disease. I noticed that the bright lights and heat seem to contribute to this. Any ideas. Has anyone else suffered this. It is aggravating. I have also had my throid checked. It has been fine. And the sugar has been tested for diabeties.

I used to have very painful eyes. Like someone has punched them. I used to work outdoors on vast flat expances of concrete servicing Jets. Glare was an issue for me. In the sickest years I shut myself inside during the day. Sunlight was to strong for me. In Australia sunlight comes with a lot of heat. If I went outside I ould only cope for @10 minutes, thee is the Lymphatic system that would become stressed, the respiratory system that would work harder, the Nervous system that would become stressed and the Endocrine system which probably overloaded, and that all happened while I was sitting down. My only solution was to saturate myself with cool water. Not Cold water as it would trigger dysantry. To much of a shock for my tummy. You will become a more proficient listener to your body thats for sure. Its only since I have started to improve that I have been able to read about any of this body systems stuff. Backthen I couldn't read for more than 5 minutes or talk for more than 15 minutes before crashing.
Think its all to do with our bodys ability to process toxins. Everything we do generates biproducts and sometimes toxins in our body.
Have you had your cortisol level checked. I'm having mine checked soon.
Here if you need me.
