Posted by David Peterson on 17 Sep 2006 as General
Many of you have been emailling me asking why I haven’t posted any new tips (particularly in my image editing series) recently.
Want to know why?
Since May, I’ve had a rather debilitating illness called Post Viral Fatigue Syndrome. It’s like Chronic Fatigue, but I haven’t had it for long enough for it to be called that. On top of that, the virus that started it also made me sensitive to Fructose (Fructose Malabsorbtion). As a result, I can no longer have wheat or some fruit.
But the biggest problem has been the tiredness. I haven’t been in to work in over 2 months, and still can’t do a full day at work. So, rather than each photo newsletter taking an afternoon to write and send, it now takes me a few days.
I’m still not completely recovered yet, but am slowly improving each day. Because CFS is a disease of exclusion, the doctors had to run all kinds of tests to ensure it wasn’t anything more serious. And although I’m really glad in my case it’s not, I also know there are a number of my subscribers (and others in the world) that are less fortunate than me. My thoughts go out to all subscribers with health issues. Let’s all get well together!
I’m not saying this to get sympathy (because I know all my subscribers will wish me well), but more to explain the recent lack of updates and delays in answering my email.
But some support by purchasing one of my products would also help ![]()

1G’day there David,
I am so sorry to hear of your illness but heartened to hear of your slow but positive recovery.
My dear Mother used to say, “This too shall pass”, and lived by that motto until the day she died.
With a disease such as you are afflicted you can only do what you can do at any time, any day so just keep pluggin’ and try your best not to let it get you down. Live one day at a time, one moment at a time. All power to you mate.
God bless you and yours,
Dennis

4I’m so sorry you’ve been so sick! Yet in spite of your illness you cleaned up the forum of the those spams!
I too have just undergone surgery a few days ago. Don’t know yet what the problem is till the results of the tests are known. Will know on 19 this month. Hopefully. So, yes like you said, let’s get well together! Chin up!
Best regards

14Hi David !
I too suffered with PVFS 3 years ago…
did lots of research and found out that all those who went on to Chronic Fatigue had one thing in common : a zinc deficiency. It is not recommended to take any more than 100 mg per day in supplement form. I took 65-85mg and I could feel the energy levels rise until I was bursting with it!
All the best and thank you for all your thoughtful tips !!

25Dear David, I pray that you feel better soon. I am so thankful for all your hard work… More importantly, I pray that you have the forgiveness from GOD through Jesus Christ, for your SPIRITUAL health. As the Bible declares, “No man can come to the Father, but through Jesus Christ.” And if you look around, it is becoming obvious that this world is coming to an end. I pray that you are LOOKING UP. Sincerely, Ann

48Hi David…
Our prayers are with you. I got Chronic Fatique / Depression several years ago and did not work as a teacher for two years. Tried everything and spent heaps on things that did not work - but one has to try. My faith in God got me through and support of some great people. I did not go back to school life again but now teach computing to adults and am much more “at peace”. I teach what “they want” as distinct from someone (gov’t) telling me what to teach! My only comment would be to “pace yourself” and, if you are like me and I suspect you are (perfectionist), then “slow down”!!!! I would always be available to chat if you need someone. Kind regards Ken (WA)

49David, so sorry to hear that you are under the weather. I was diagnosed with CFS about 14 years ago. The best advice is to listen to your body, as soon as your symptoms show up just give in to it and kick back for a couple of days and let your body take a rest. I’ve found if you keep pushing you will really regret it. So far as I can determine this will be with us forever, so we just have to learn to acclimate our lifestyle to it. Best of luck to you. Linda

I am an Indian who learned photograhy from you, sir. So in our custom, you are my Guru.
I understand you are undergoing treatments in your country. If your doctors put you in suppliments and rest,remember that in India we have treatments for CFS. When you get time, look for ayurvedic cure for CFS and if you are interested, please mail me. I’ll bear your expenses if you choose to come for a treatment here.
I owe you this, guru.
Get well soon
I remain,
Dr. Ranjith

89health comes first, then family, then others such as work, hobbies, friends …. and last but very last those who complains (i’m sure that none of your readers who get for free so much advice, wonderfull advice should complain). they must have been worried, that’all .
please do get well first, fully recover, then do take vacation with your family, you do need to get completely well, rested and happy minded before getting back to your work
my wife and my kid got some kind of completely tireness, hopefully it was for 2 weeks. But 2 months must be horrible
please do get well.
god bless you

100Sorry to hear you’ve not been well. Really sounds quite debilitating!
We have a photo library of all the photos we have taken over the last few years for our educational text book (I work for a publishing company in south Africa) and was wondering whether we can use some of the hints from your regular newsletters in our own newsletter. We could provide a link which would then take people to the products you sell. I’m really quite new to the terminology, but I guess than would make us affiliates?
If you want to see some of our photos, please go to our website and then click on the camera.
Get well soon.

108Sorry to hear you are not well, but glad to hear you are improving. Do not overdo and take as long as necessary. Going too hard before you are fully recovered can cause relaps, and no one wants that.
Take care,

110Hi David,
Hang in there mate, I too know what you are going through, 4 months ago I was stricken with a bacteria in the blood that has knocked the stuffing out of me. (Desease called Q Fever). It too has left me with QFS. I have learnt to take1 day at a time and to listen to my body. So lets recover together.
Thanks for all your wonderful tips, look forward to more when you feel as though you are ready, (don’t rush it) we all can what.
Best wishes

114Dear David,
I am so sorry to hear about your illness. I pray that God will grant you the courage you need while on the road to recovery. I pray that you will soon be restored to the good health you once possessed.
I can’t thank you enough for all the tips you send through the e-mail. I enjoy each one. I print them and put them in a notebook so that I can reread to refresh my memory.
Thanks once again and take care,
Judy

116I have already posted my best wishes, but, …… I was just thinking, it would be real nice to add the country that each person is from, when posting their best wishes. It would let David know all the countries that he is reaching out to, with his wonderful and much appreciated help. ……. Just a thought!
