I have read through the recovery section and I am wondering if there have been anyone who recovered and had blood tests done to see the difference. Any post-recovery blood test results for comparison?
I’ve looked hard on here to find a case where blood tests returned to normal levels and have asked some of the people who claim to have recovered. So far, zero such luck.
This is exactly what I have been asking all the people in the past but none has been responded so far. This is the reason I always doubt recovery claims. I even highly doubt CDnuts claims about his recovery. if you look at my past posts, I repeatedly asked him about his blood tests but he said that he does not chase numbers etc. Without blood reports there will always be doubt. We dont know what level the were affected and what level they have recovered.
I have seen people post blood tests where levels increased, sometimes asymptomatic meaning they didn’t feel any better but their levels normalized
If I recovered and I could live a normal life again I couldnt care less what any blood test said. I would just want to move on and catch up on life.
I’ve kicked myself several times for not getting blood tests done during temporary recoveries, but to be honest I’m not really sure what we’d all be looking for.
I’ve had blood tests done to search for any deficiencies in anything and the doctors always say everything is within acceptable ranges.
I’m assuming if people recover, their blood tests would still be within normal ranges.
So what would there be that would be “proof” of their recovery?
From the standpoint of curiosity I would like to see if there is a difference, but not seeing the test wouldn’t make me not believe a recovery story. After all, I haven’t seen a blood test as proof that they actually have PFS. I just read their symptoms and trust that they have it, and then read that they don’t feel these symptoms anymore and trust that they don’t have it.
