    Understanding the Behavioral and Medical Impact of Long COVID, 2023, Jason & Lapp

    Our first long covid clinic was set up at the University of Debrecen. And the doctor responsible for infectiology/rheumatology there published a book in 2021, titled "What is Worth Knowing About the Covid Infection and the Post-Covid Conditions". In 2021!)

    CNN: Zero-calorie sweetener (erythritol) linked to heart attack and stroke, study finds

    I'm not sure about the other sweeteners but I have some diabetic people in my family and when I baked/cooked for them, I used xylitol, as you can substitute sugar 1:1 with it, so baking with it is less complicated. And ugh, xylitol is also a biological weapon in larger amounts, ehehe. (Namely it...

    There is a worrying amount of fraud in medical research, 2023

    There are some similar recoveries after other viral infections too though. I remember reading about some recoveries in post-influenza cases of ME/CFS. She is the one I remember in particular, as she is famous, a world champion...

    There is a worrying amount of fraud in medical research, 2023

    The post-infectious thing after EBV is not just 6 months of fatigue though. So if he based that on the lingering symptoms after EBV, he was wrong, he just simplified the symptoms as fatigue, the same way we see this going on even today. The definition was bad, it is not the fault of the...

    NHS treatments for people who get covid...?

    Not sure about your current symptoms but omicron gave me the worst sinusitis of my life. All my upper teeth hurt like crazy from the pressure (my head too of course but that was kind of expected) and my nasal discharge was just hard dry bits of deep red blood for days (not even a trace of other...

    Gait in ME/CFS

    In PEM I also feel slower. It feels a bit like moving in water, like there is some resistance. My body needs to work harder. However, I don't think an outside viewer would notice anything special about me. It is probably not pronounced enough for that in my case. But interestingly I can get...

    News from Southeastern Europe

    Posted today on Facebook by the Serbian ME/CFS page I follow (translated by Google): This was all, but I guess we'll probably find out more soon. (Don't ask me what "crisis of consciousness" exactly is. FB, Google Translate and ChatGPT all translated it the same way.)

    OpenAi's new ChatGPT

    Yes, I guess it hasn't seen a lot of joke websites here yet, so it is probably trying to come up with something based on the information currently available to it. Edit: I've actually asked ChatGPT itself about the jokes:

    OpenAi's new ChatGPT

    Btw, ChatGPT gives a different experience in different languages. To what extent exactly, I'm not sure. But I asked it to make jokes in both English and Hungarian and in English it was actually pretty funny, it seems to be a fan of wordplay. But in Hungarian I only got really weird attempts...

    News from the Visegrád Countries - Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia and Hungary

    I'm trying to catch up with things a bit. I didn't even really check Facebook when I was on my break for health reasons so I missed this very sad post from the Czech ME/CFS patient organization from August. Translation: Here is the Google translated version of their full announcement. If...

    WHO releases clinical case definition for post #COVID19 condition or ‘#LongCovid’ in children and adolescents

    After a quick glance, this seems to be worse than the one created for adults with LC. CFS is mentioned but they don't really seem to know what they are talking about: There is a long list of studies with a short summary of their findings for each. Here CFS is mentioned again as such a...

    Famous people diagnosed with neurological diseases

    I've seen the documentary about her. She tried stem cell therapy, where her immune system was basically destroyed with chemotherapy first, before the transplantation. It looked quite brutal and dangerous. She says she feels better now but the disease is still not really gone for her. It's just...

    A Secret for Falling Asleep So Good It’s a British National Treasure

    David Attenborough, the man who was already old when I started to watch his documentaries as a small kid but here we are 30 years later and he still keeps releasing new films every year. Sounds like that autobiography might have been a bit more premature and he should publish another one when he...

    What to expect from infectious disease testing?

    My personal experience: My disease started with an EBV infection and years later my GP decided to test me again for it. The IgG and EBNA values showed that I had a past infection but the IgM, the one that is indicative of a fresh infection, came back with the label that could be translated as...
