Cleanup weighted 2 What is neurological fatigue? date April 2011 Prevalent amongst sufferers of multiple sclerosis some people with Narcolepsy also report this feeling , neurological fatigue is a feeling of overwhelming lassitude or tiredness that can occur at any time of the day, for any duration and does not necessarily recur in a recognisable pattern for any given patient. ref cite journal author Comi G, Leocani L, Rossi P, Colombo B title Physiopathology and treatment of fatigue in multiple sclerosis journal J. Neurol. volume 248 issue 3 pages 174 9 year 2001 month March pmid 11355149 doi 10.1007 s004150170222 url ref Neurological fatigue has been described as an overwhelming feeling of weakness not associated with increased physical effort. There is near universal support that the fatigue experienced by people with MS goes beyond that of people without the disease. Many Multiple Sclerosis patients report sleeping more than 12 hours a night on successive nights and still being too tired to complete their daily duties despite feeling physically rested. This fatigue is also highly variable and there are some with MS who do not experience neurological fatigue as a primary symptom. As this fatigue is an invisible symptom, and because of the difficulty of explaining the tired brain feeling of neurological fatigue, others can misinterpret the behavior of persons with MS as lack of effort, but it is important for those dealing with MS patients to realize that this may not be the case. ref cite journal author Mills RJ, Young CA, Pallant JF, Tennant A title Development of a patient reported outcome scale for fatigue in multiple sclerosis The Neurological Fatigue Index NFI MS journal Health Qual Life Outcomes volume 8 issue pages 22 year 2010 pmid 20152031 pmc 2834659 doi 10.1186 1477 7525 8 22 url ref The specific causes of fatigue in Multiple Sclerosis sufferers are not fully understood.

expert subject Neurology date January 2010 The diagnosis of Functional Neurological Deficit provides an umbrella term for a variety of symptoms of apparent neurological origin but which current models struggle to explain psychologically or organically. Presentation may be similar to a wide range of other neurological conditions from paralysis to weakness. Most neurologists use it as a code for conversion disorder an effort not to offend the patient. aetiological neutral sense. Functional Neurological Deficit can present with any motor or sensory symptom in the body including Weakness Paralysis of a limb or the entire body Impaired hearing or vision Loss Disturbance of sensation Impairment or loss of speech Fixed Dystonia , unlike normal dystonia Tremor, Myoclonus , or other movement disorders Gait problems Given the occurrence of these medically unexplained symptoms in patients with organic brain injury, spinal injury, to post anaethaesia and post viral illnesses, the modern term moves away from psychodynamic theory and provides a useful label for what is a complex and little understood disorder. Neuroanatomy Abnormalities in orbitofrontal, cingulate or prefrontal cortex circuits in processing environmental stimuli from the CNS result in an interruption of awareness of contralateral basal ganglia and thalamic motor circuits. Once the connection is disrupted motor circuits are no longer activated by cortex activity as they rely on reciprocal paths for continual function. In effect it is a hardware crash caused by an interruption of power consciousness with a corresponding decrease in blood flow to the basal ganglia and thalamus . Macrocosmic damage in the form of lesions for example in the same subcortical pre motor circuits may also result in unilateral motor neglect, where ... to deal with from post anaesthetic weakness, neurological damage , viral infection, fatigue to trivial ...

Multiple issues orphan January 2011 no footnotes May 2011 Phonemic neurological hypochromium therapy PNHT is a new technique that uses insemination devices to implement chromium Cr3 into the Hypothalamus hypothalamic regions of the brain. It has been proposed by Dr. Nicole Kim to offset delayed phonemic awareness in children between the ages of 3 and 8. The causes of delayed phonemic awareness have been linked to an inability to break down chromium triastenitephosphate. PNHT has been successfully implemented into in vivo mice with some controversial side effects, including polydactyly , regurgitation , fatigue medical fatigue , and nausea . While Russia , Poland , and Ukraine have approved this procedure, the United States Food and Drug Administration USFDA has not yet granted its approval. Preparation PNHT functions on the premise that the hypothalamic region of the human brain lacks the critical molecule chromium picolinate , a molecule typically produced by cytochromase B7 1 . The hypothalamus of a developing child may lack cytochromase B7, thereby causing a delay in phonemic awareness. The PNHT process involves passing a chromium mixture CrAt3PO4 dissolved in a mobile phase through a stationary phase, which separates the chromium picolinate to be measured from other molecules in the mixture based on differential partitioning between the mobile and stationary phases. Subtle differences in a compound s partition coefficient result in differential retention on the stationary phase and thus changing the separation. Experiment In vitro and animal studies 1,2 have shown chromium to have a positive effect on insulin sensitivity . One of the intracellular proteins influencing the insulin receptor is the oligopeptide apolipoprotein , low molecular weight , chromium binding substance apo chromomodulin 2 . In vitro, this peptide has the ability to increase tyrosine kinase activity eightfold, depending on the chromium concentration 3 . This in turn promotes insulin receptor ... more details
