Using a Blood Thinner to Treat Chronic Fatigue

When the muscles switch into a way of working where they don't get enough oxygen, it's called anaerobic respiration. The cells instead put out lactic acid into the blood, and that makes your blood actually acid. For these patients, their blood clears that acid after a while, but clearly there's a disconnect between the good levels of oxygen we see in their blood  and the amount of oxygen that can get into their muscles. We've published a couple of papers, and one of the drugs we're including in the drug chart is a blood thinner to try and test this hypothesis at scale.
