From what I gather, if the victim has an MD after their name, then their postviral syndrome is real and needs urgent NIH funding. If the victim is...
Yes but if people are saying they are getting positive effects from 0.2 mg and such microdoses, assuming those effects are real, then they can...
As an infectious disease doc I imagine she has seen PVFS and ME/CFS patients in her career. Based on her statements here about exercise, she...
Wine and cider particularly bad. Beer I don’t know, rarely drink it. Spirits least bad, esp. the expensive stuff.
In the early years of ME even two glasses of wine would make me feel completely drunk and sick for days afterwards. I was mildly ill at the time...
I’m amazed that the Oxford vaccine hasn’t been scrapped given the much better alternatives available. I guess the Covid panic has overridden...
I’ve been given both G93.3 and R53 by different doctors and in both cases it was heavily implied that this is a post viral fatigue syndrome and...
Useful study, glad to see this published. No evidence of hysteria here but it doesn't sound like it was ME/CFS either, unless I am missing...
Good questions. I don't think nutrition plays a role here. To alter the kynurenine pathway you'd would need to be on a weird mix of amino acids...

Could you say more about what’s wrong with their understanding of effort? If you feel up to it of course.
It should be easy enough to do an RCT of this. Widely available drug, no travel to infusion centre necessary unlike in the rituximab trial etc....
Abstract The importance of tryptophan as a precursor for neuroactive compounds has long been acknowledged. The metabolism of tryptophan along the...
Yeah. We can't paint these treatments with too broad a brush. While there are some commonalities like altering relevant neurotransmitters,...
I would be cautious about dopaminergic drugs in ME/CFS. I think these approaches just mask the symptoms while the underlying disease process is...
"The majority of patients (n= 25, 89%) were taught to correct respiratory CO2 levels during a single biofeedback training session." And? Did it...
For fuck's sake.
If deconditioning doesn’t cause ME/CFS, what possible reason is there to push, I’m sorry, encourage, the patient to increase their activity level?...
Sad state of affairs. No ideas, no clues - nothing.
When the very first posts started appearing on forums about CCI, my gut reaction was that this would end up being a bigger public relations...
Separate names with a comma.
