Well... it's not calcium, but after having CFS/ME for about 11 years now, I've been using a B12 oral spray and a liquid iron supplmement (iron rich water) for the last 2-3 months and I've noticed a small improvement in my energy levels. So I'd give them both a try if you haven't already.

Hi Guava,
I know you can get B12 pills, but I'd recommend the spray as B12 is apparently water soluble (can't be absorbed in pill form very well). Also, do you mind me asking if you'd like to be a vegetarian, why you aren't?
PS lori93950, you can get all the protein you need very easily as a vegetarian.

That's a shame Guava... you mind me asking what eight foods you can eat?
lori93950, I'm sorry you've got Epstein Barr and if you want to eat meat, that's your choice, but you really can get enough protein as a vegetarian if you want to. You can get pasta made of beans, which is super rich in protein or take vegetarian/vegan protein shakes etc.
