FAQ - Support
1. Can my local doctor monitor my progress?
Yes. Local medical supervision is recommended.
If antibiotics are needed, pause the CFIDS Protocol until antibiotics are finished.
2. What if others say CFIDS has no cure?
The CFIDS Protocol supports the body's natural recovery mechanisms. Refer them to documented reports on this website.
FAQ - International
1. Why is Dr Petrovic based in South Africa?
Because his CFIDS research and development began there.
2. Does Dr Petrovic work with international patients?
Yes. Since 1995, patients from the USA, UK, and Australia have participated with positive outcomes.
3. Can I contact other participants?
Yes, with their consent. Contact details are available on the CFIDS Protocol Contacts Worldwide page
FAQ - About CFIDS
1. Is CFIDS contagious?
No, it is not. However, if members of the same social group or family have been exposed to the same negative environmental, biological, or biochemical factors, they may develop CFIDS.
2. Can CFIDS be treated with antibiotics, antidepressants, tranquilizers, immunoglobulins, buprenorphine-HCL, Ampligen, antifungal or homeopathic
medicine? Can it be treated with rotational diet or the 'anti-candida' diet? Can fasting improve CFIDS symptoms?
None of these drugs/substances address the underlying cause of CFIDS - systemic oxidative stress. Some may provide temporary symptom relief, but chronic
use often carries limitations and potential long-term effects. Rotational diet and elimination of certain dietary products may help with fungal overgrowth,
providing temporary improvement in symptoms. Fasting may temporarily reduce free radicals in the bowel and improve symptoms, but it does not neutralize
systemic oxidative stress or modulate the immune response permanently.
3. Can various psychological approaches, reverse therapy etc. improve CFIDS symptoms
Although psychological approaches may have temporary beneficial effects on the neuro-vegetative system, they cannot address the root cause of CFIDS
because they do not:
A) Replenish crucial micronutrient deficiencies.
B) Provide substantial modulation of the immune response and improvements in neutrophil functional responses (quantitative and qualitative), which are
described in antioxidant programs by Dr Boxer, L.A., in "The role of antioxidants in modulating neutrophil functional responses" Adv. Exp Med Biol,
262:19-33,1990.
C) Neutralize systemic oxidative stress as described by Dr Pall (Washington Medical School).
4. Has anybody else confirmed Dr Petrovic's findings?
Prof Dr Terence Kilroe-Smith and other experts have monitored and reviewed Dr Petrovic’s work. Patient reports and scientific findings are documented
and available on:
https://www.cfidshealth.com/latest-news-1.html
The Australian National Centre for Digestive Diseases confirmed full clinical reversal of auto- immune Chron's disease in a former Australian National basketball representative (Jason White) who underwent the CFIDS Protocol. Full reversal of Chron's disease has been also confirmed via endoscopic and histological examination / biopsy in two RSA patients. These are unique and exiting medical findings that confirm very powerful immunomodulatory properties of the CFIDS Protocol that can apparently successfully address certain auto- immune entities as well. Clinical reports on these recoveries are available on:
https://www.cfidshealth.com/latest-news-4.html
In the beginning of 1998, Canadian Pilot Study was launched in a group of several selected bedridden CFIDS patients who did not respond to any treatment procedures in the USA and Canada. All patients ( 100%)responded to Dr Petrovic ’s programme, reporting excellent therapeutic responses and recovery from CFIDS.
Many physicians around the world confirmed excellent therapeutic responses and successful recoveries of their local patients who underwent the CFIDS Protocol as well. These doctors include Dr Jackson ( USA), Dr Cordas (USA) Dr McGee (UK ) and other specialist physicians whose medical findings/reports are available on our web sites as well
5. Apart from the extended CDC Atlanta CFIDS criteria, is there any other laboratory way to diagnose CFIDS?
University of Newcastle (Australia) provides 'Bioscreen' tests showing statistical correlation between CFIDS and certain urinary metabolites (CFSUM1, CFSUM2, tyrosine, beta-alanine, acetic acid, succinic acid). Abnormalities in 2-5A synthetase/RNase L and PKR antiviral defense mechanisms have also been reported. These findings support the understanding of immune dysfunction in CFIDS but are not exclusively specific to CFIDS.
6. Have any of Dr Petrovic's patients been tested using the Bioscreen methodology?
Yes, 4 Australian patients showed significant improvement in CFIDS criteria and urinary markers after treatment (1998 research study).
FAQ - Contacts and Communication
1. I would like to speak to Dr Petrovic personally. Alternatively, I would like to send an e-mail to him. Does he charge anything for this type of consultation?
All telephonic consultations are charged as per standard consulting rates and must be arranged minimum 4 weeks in advance. Preliminary e-mail consulting is currently provided free of charge for all patients.
