#12,13-diHOME
These molecular changes matched symptom severity.

Patients with higher GDF15 had worse fatigue scores.

Those with lower 12,13-diHOME had more physical fatigue and reduced activity.

Inflammation markers like S100A8 also tracked with fatigue and motivation loss.

The fat-burning problem was worse after exercise.

In ME/CFS, carnitine dropped even more, and fatty acids built up. One compound called 12,13-diHOME, which helps cells take up fat, was low before exercise and abnormally high after.

This pattern was not seen in controls.
