A member asked:
I have cfs and "immune dysfunction". it's been explained my immune system responds with inflammation then i feel flare ups. my inflammation markers are normal during flare ups- so would anti-inflammatory meds be pointless to help me?

It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see a doctor, preferably a rheumatologist. Wish you good health!
