Does anyone know about immunoabsorption? It sucks IGG antibodies out of blood. In a study of ppl w #MECFS w these antibodies, 7/10 got better or recovered from ME w this treatment. Study suggests ß2 adrenergic receptor antibodies may be causing the blood flow issues in ME.
Does anyone know how to get tested for ß2 adrenergic receptor antibodies? Do you know if this test is commercially available? Study used ELISA and B cell phenotype by flow cytometry. @exceedhergrasp1 @jenbrea
From a health rising article on blood flow issues & narrowed blood vessels in ppl w MECFS. (It says 7 + 3 more got better in study, but study suggests just 7 got better from what I can tell?) https://www.healthrising.org/blog/2020/06/09/small-blood-vessels-arterioles-chronic-fatigue-syndrome/
Are there follow up studies on immunoabsorption in ME? What percent of #pplwME have ß2 adrenergic receptor antibodies?

Study (below) says that & M3 acetylcholine receptor antibodies (both relate to blood flow) are found “in a subset” of ME patients. How big is this subset?
Study referenced in tweet above https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32247028/
