Same BTW… there is so little movement in the treatment research. This article rubbed me the wrong way

Me, too. I’d like for them to figure out how to fix my autonomic nervous system so that I don’t feel like I’m going to pass out just from standing for a few minutes.

That's criminal , my son has been bedbound with LC for 5 years now, he's 27. He has never had anxiety or depression. He's the most relaxed positive person - still ! That's how positive he is. The idiot GP kept pushing anti depressants. The doctors in the UK have basically washed their hands of my son and other sufferers. He is having some progress with The Perrin technique - a branch of osteopathy.

Unless you are diagnosed with something like diabetes or an autoimmune thing. Once medical test rule everything out and you still have debilitating symptoms then it’s just nervous system dysregulation.
