> Maybe, except that the drop in BP can be triggered by heat and psychological stress. I suppose you could consider these a form of over-exertion. Not only is NMH poorly understood, but the details of the connection between it and CFS are completely mysterious.
>One of your links connected the specific effect to a parodoxical response to adrenaline. The key disruption in CFS is, IMHO, adrenal. Heat and psychological stressors can both trigger adrenal responses....
