I think this was done decades ago. I wrote a blog on it, I think on Phoenix Rising. I no longer remember the data, but huge numbers were...
Plus nearly all transplant surgeries and aftercare. There is still no sound medical basis to this version of FND. They might as well be saying...
Sadly I see this happening to some extent with evidence based medicine now. The movement is failing, but has not fully failed yet. Its just on its...
I used to call this the two hit hypothesis, but later amended that to the multiple hit hypothesis. I had in mind the staged onset idea as well....
If ME is a response to a viral infection its entirely possible that infections that do not show symptoms are a cause. Its also possible that one...
I regard this as an open question. Its fairer to say that we cannot be sure ME is one disease. It still might be several or many diseases though....
If BH4 expression is high it seems it might be protective of something. They hint at this with oxidative stress, but it might not be that, or not...
In any online forum what percentage claiming to be doctors, as in MDs, are actually MDs? How many are trolls? I know from personal experience that...

Right now no AI that I have read about understands anything. The current generation seem to just process patterns, and can process huge amounts of...
Current AI will give us answers, but those answers might be nonsense and not pan out. Humans will still be in the mix if an AI comes up with an...
The first time I took a dose in about 1993 it threw me into a bout of amnesia for a day. We can indeed have adverse effects. ME is so complicated...
This comment is mostly not about ME but about older people and fatigue. One of the issues that contributes, probably to a varying degree, is the...
This is my experience. My ferritin was sky high for a while, even higher than most with iron overload, but my iron wasn't. I was nearly anaemic....
This position is partly why its taken so long. Its not about argument in my view, but mainly medical economics and politics. Which of course...
I was talking about the likelihood of misfolded proteins in ME with Rich van Konyenburg and Martin L Pall in the early 2000s. It seemed so very...
I think that would depend on the size and frequency of upregulation in the cohort.
