@ahimsa thank you, that’s very helpful! I get mouth ulcers very easily, and sometimes feel like they have taken up permanent residence and formed...
@Dechi I looked into it last year because of my 'burning' spine, long term on-and-off pelvis pain and inflammation, etc. I tested negatively for...
Another version is something like this: “Well I don’t know if this works for everyone or anyone, but at least these patients are willing to do...
Just didn’t want to write Germany twice! :) My point is these countries should have more people willing to contribute, we just need to figure out...
@Kalliope can I ask what hospital you were turned down at? I’m considering asking for a referral for POTS, but if I’ll just be turned down there’s...
Sorry forgot to tag you above, @dave30th :)
I think the first thing to do is to actually raise the fundraising goal to 150k or whatever you need for a full time position. People tend to...
Kaiser Permanente changes in ME/CFS policy I think :)
Rumor is it went very well, from what I can tell it's an early Norwegian equivalent to IiME, organized completely by a severely ill girl and her...

It comes and goes, but a lot worse than before ME. We had to buy a dark rug for the living room because glasses of wine kept falling on it:bag:...
No suggestions, just wanted to say that you could have been describing me (except it's my right leg that keeps going numb, quite often, not my left)
I think it works more by reminding you of your posture than by actually holding you up (ie., makes it uncomfortable to slouch), in which case I...
@Snow Leopard Maybe I see it differently because I'm severe, but I can pass my AT just by sitting long enough. Just proves why they were right to...
If you have POTS it is. But they excluded pwPOTS (?), which was sensible if you ask me for that very reason.
Very interesting, yes. I go from severe to almost moderate most summers, the shift usually starts around May and peaks in September. I don't get...
@Amw66 I’m outside Oslo, at 59.9:) Pretty far north, but a much milder climate than you would expect thanks to the Gulf Stream. The farther...
