In a way, the lower quality standards also leads to some useful stuff that wouldn't usually get published getting published. Ie. I doubt Whitney...
I experience something similar. A little PEM mostly just makes symptoms flare and goes away in a couple days. A lot of PEM or repeated PEM worsens...
Similar experience. i spent 6 months going to every specialist my doctor referred me to and trying everything they prescribed. it was brutal and...
That’s always been my hunch. ME seems to fuck up the body pretty bad, but it’s pretty much impossible to see anything abnormal looking inside the...
