I found this report, by Linda Mottram, this morning, particularly interesting as it was quite unabashed in putting chronic, post-CoVid-19 symptoms in the same basket as ME/CFS. So far the rule, by the ABC and politicians in Australia, has been to use avoidance language, even when it was quite...

Physical fatigue crucially influences our decisions to partake in effortful action. However, there is a limited understanding of how fatigue impacts effort-based decision-making at the level of brain and behavior. We use functional magnetic resonance imaging to record markers of brain activity...

Might you have had high, intracranial pressure, which caused a leak; after which your intracranial pressure is low? There are some reports along those lines over at HR, here. Some report a relief of CFS/ME symptoms after a lumbar puncture or after a presumed leak. The usual, and most accessible...

Mice can leap a long way... The smallest of these microproteins are around ten amino-acids long—the average for proteins being around 300—so I imagine that they're small enough. That Science article doesn't go into the specifics of the recent Salk paper in Nature but the findings are even more...
