Participants will lie in a machine that takes pictures of their brain. They may get a dye through their IV. Grip strength tested Saliva, cheek swab, and stool collected Tilt table test with measures of body functions such as sweating and breathing, blood pressure, and heart rate and blood and urine sample collection Collection of blood cells. Participants can choose to have the blood drawn through the IV or through a machine that filters blood cells and returns the liquid blood back into the participant s vein. Lumbar puncture. Fluid will be removed by placement of a needle between the back bones. Heart monitoring Sleep study for participants with PI ME/CFS Questions about the participant s life and how they are feeling Questions from a neuropsychologist Questions from an occupational therapist for participants with PI ME/CFS Questinos from a nutritionist After the initial visit participants will return home.
