... or it might mean that being ill and having reduced activity results in larger hippocampal volumes. Cause or effect? They should check...
To me, PEM is a worsening of existing symptoms due to some causative factor. Exertion is only one of many causative factors that can trigger...
What jumps to my mind is whether the commonality involves the immune system (s). Are there any causes of worsening that doesn't have some sort of...
Known symptoms of deficiency and toxicity. Researchers keep discovering new effects/symptoms of assumedly well-understood nutrients.
I agree, but it needs to be not so all-encompassing that people get the impression that we're just whiners whining about anything and everything.
I agree with Jonathan about PEM not being only due to exertion, and that the variability and time frames of the symptoms severity are important....
I agree with those objections. Maybe something about "PEM is typically delayed 24 hrs after physical exertion, but is (typically?) shorter after...
Do we have the technology to detect that in PWME? If yes, I assume the tests were negative, else it would be newsworthy. If it's possible to...
That's my guess too. I do wonder how easy it will be to find subjects near enough to that hospital. Maybe they'll need to open it up to subjects...
The only "newness" of my ME is which foods or food components I'm sensitive to. My main symptoms are lethargy and brainfog, and the severity...
Wouldn't they get multiple mutually contradictory experiences, since PWME differ so much? One gets PEM from moving their arms, but can talk for...
I think their argument that "It is not about ‘every other Swede’" translates to "I know of at least 3 people in Sweden who already follow a...
I think it's one of those cases where an ideal professional could help, but will that be 1/1000 or 1/10000000000000 professionals? How do you...
I had an unexpected worsening of my symptoms yesterday, and it definitely didn't fit my concept of "fatigue". "Malaise" fits better, although...
Yes, vague definitions really aren't helping with ME research or education.
I think they could use more information to convince them to err on the side of caution while they learn their limits. It might help to have...
My main symptoms are brainfog and lethargy, and "lethargy" is definitely different from "fatigue" or "tiredness". I can do strenuous physical...
Could the differences be due to different lifestyles (activity, diet, etc) and different exposure to pathogens? I'm guessing that someone with...
I think it's worth pointing out that many (most?) PWME want to be more active. They don't need a professional encouragement. A gadget that...
Pacing doesn't need professional guidance; it needs personal awareness and experience. Over time, PWME get better at judging when they can do a...
Separate names with a comma.
