Of course, fatigue can have many different causes, which makes it difficult to treat. Most of the treatment is based on knowing the actual cause. Sometimes, half the battle is simply ruling things out. In this video, we will go through some of the symptoms and presentations that may make you lean more towards an immune cause as a possibility versus other causes. Ruling things out and narrowing down the possibilities is obviously helpful in this case. Immune dysfunction and increased immune activity can definitely be one of those things that cause ongoing chronic fatigue issues. It can present in a few different ways, and we will discuss some of the more common diagnoses and presentations. When your immune system is working overtime, it can cause fatigue. This is because the immune system produces chemicals that can make you feel tired. You can think of it like the same way that when you get sick with a cold or the flu, you get that kind of fatigue, malaise feeling where you don't really feel like doing much. Maybe you just want to lie down, maybe even you feel cold or chills. Those types of symptoms can come and go when you're sick with a cold or the flu. But kind of underneath all that, you're always going to have like this low motivation, fatigue symptoms, and that's sort of built into the immune response. So this type of fatigue related to immune system issues is more important to consider when your fatigue is coming and going. So you always kind of have some fatigue, but maybe it comes on in a burst and maybe lasts 4, 3, 4, 5 days, and then it goes away. And then it comes back. And it could be intermittent in how often it comes. So it could be there for a couple days, then it goes away for a week or two weeks, and then it comes again. Along with that, you may have body aches or joint aches, and that kind of goes along with the symptoms one would feel when they're sick with a cold or the flu as well. But in these cases, you're not actually sick. Obviously, you don't actually get a cold or the flu, but you kind of feel like you're on the edge of maybe getting that kind of thing.immune causes of fatigue. So obviously, chronic infections can be caused by viruses like Epstein Bar or bacteria like mycoplasma, pneumonia, or even something known as sibo, small intestinal bacteria overgrowth. Other pathogens like that, which produces Lyme disease are also culprits for causing this intermittent waxing and waning fatigue. Autoimmune disease is a process where the immune system is attacking healthy cells and tissues. And this can also cause fatigue as it's related to producing those immune chemicals that can make us feel tired. And, in this case your immune system is kind of tricking the body. In a sense because it's being overactive against tissues and fighting tissues that ourself, and it really shouldn't be doing that. So these are things like lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and other autoimmune diseases. Third one to talk about is inflammatory conditions. Inflammatory conditions can be lots of different things. even the autoimmune things are considered inflammatory, but there's also some subclinical, meaning they're not autoimmune, but they're. On the borderline where your immune system is definitely overactive and therefore you have inflammation going on in your body. We just don't know specifically what to call it or where it's coming from. So these could be things like ibs type symptoms no actual autoimmune condition. So for. Irritable bowel disease like Crohn's and ulcerative colitis. Those are also considered autoimmune type of digestive disorders. But things like allergies, asthma, even Postviral syndrome can present in a way that there's. Obviously some inflammation there and you'll see it on some of the lab values and feel these. Off and on again, fatigue. But as far as actual autoimmune disease, it's not there. So we'd say this is sort of an in between subclinical autoimmune.
