Most of us (myself included) are not medical doctors specialized in this field. Could you please expand your acronyms? I only know of CFS (if it's the same one) because a cousin has it.

Sure,

  ME/CFS: Myalgic Encephalomyelitis / Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
  hEDS: Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos syndrome
  TNXB: A gene for making the tenascin-X protein, it's one of the RCCX (Receptor of Complement component 4) gene cluster genes.
  SNPs: Single nucleotide polymorphisms
  WGS: Whole Genome Sequencing
