The correlation between severity of symptoms being unique to the ME group is interesting. I wonder what’s going on there. Really good to see the underlying grip strength results reproduced. Having my HGS measured and seeing my results and wider context of the 2018 paper was a clarifying moment...

Looks interesting. Pleased to see Caroline Kingdon involved as she’s great. And involvement from a teaching hospital/medical school near me. Is there any more info about these workshops or how they came about anywhere?

Thanks, that’s the sort of thing I was thinking. My biology knowledge is poor and chemistry/physics better but rusty. But if there’s changes to how things cross the cell membrane one can imagine how various systems would get upset and behave in odd ways. As others say, interesting paper, lots...

I’ve had periods where the peeing a lot is an early phase stage, then my body suddenly decides it needs to catch up and rehydrate and after that other PEM stuff. And periods where I’ve been stuck in that state for a prolonged time, generally when very bad.
