Just worked out BCAA stands for Branched Chain Amino Acids. :-)

Looks like the same amounts of amino acids. Certainly interesting that it seems to have helped. I “think” my electrolyte mix helps me, but really, I’m not sure. If nothing else I’m better hydrated.

Interesting. I make up my own electrolyte solution, however this seems to be more about amino acids than salts? I found the Scivation Xtend on Amazon: “Ingredients: L-Leucine (3.5g), L-Glutamine (2.5g), L-Isoleucine (1.75g), L-Valine (1.75g), L-Citrulline DL-Malate (1g), Flavours, Acidity...

Sorry - should also have said that this is a very interesting paper, showing clear differences in how ME peeps react to exertion.

Can anyone explain to me why the p values I’ve highlighted the graphs on pages 6 & 7 are so low? Surely those p values should not be so low? Or am I mis-interpreting something?

I haven’t managed to read it all yet, but this looks really interesting. Presumably applying filters to incoming information is an active process, thus this could explain the ME overwhelm in busy environments. I’ll read in more depth later when spoons are more plentiful! :P

As a student I found touching my toes nigh on impossible. I was fit, healthy and did all that ‘80s Aerobics stuff complete with leotard and leg warmers. I once decided that I “needed” to be able to touch my toes. It took me 6 weeks of daily stretching and effort to finally manage it. As soon...

I understand the event was professionally videoed. Sadly I couldn’t be there, but I’m looking forward to the release of the DVD in due course. :)

Thank you!

Interesting. Do you have a link to the trial?

Oops Adam got there first. LOL I must have dawdled with my post, cos I only saw Adam’s one after posting mine!

@daftasabrush Three patient reps are on S4ME - myself, @adambeyoncelowe and @saranbonser . We are not hiding our details, nor blocking PMs. So it is not difficult to make contact. I am reading many threads here closely, even if I don’t always comment. However we can only share information...

It’s a good post @Samuel - don’t delete it. I get your points about the severe too. Any of us could go there - we just don’t know what’s round the corner for any of us.

@JoanNI :-)

:cry: Thank you Greg. Sobering to read, but so important that these things are said. xx

I really do like the energy ceiling idea - and the budget one too. As for a baseline - well as others have said that implies that a baseline is somewhere to start to increase from. And there is no certainty that we can alter our own well-being by our decisions to do so! I think one’s energy...

THIS!

I’m just on the iPad just now, but I’ll fire up the computer later and send you some stuff in a PM. PS... Edited to add, @RDP I just watched your video at the top of this thread. :) Really that trap idea seems to make so much sense! I wonder can there be multiple traps? Given my n=1...

I had to look up AYFKM!

@lunarainbows - I find your experience horrific. There are too many of these tales. I will PM you now. Xx
