Yes, I see your point. I'm not in constant fatigue either, only during what I call "flares" (sometimes they follow overexertion, sometimes they...
All the points made above are well taken. But just the same, the ideas piqued my interest. I have consistently high platelet counts, which I was...
Na, lived experience is good, as long as its "correct". e.g. Paul Garner, Recovery Norge. All lived experiences are equal, but some are more...
Do they realise what they are admitting? "We literally don't know what the *%$# is wrong with about a third of the patients that come to us....
Ha, we were just talking on another thread about how easy it is to find these sorts of retrospective associations, by capitalising on...
I'm glad you say verifiable history, @hibiscuswahine. My guess is that if there really is such a thing as factitious disorder, then people with it...

Interesting find, @MSEsperanza. Re the Stoll paper: I was reading along, thinking it was a pretty good way of assessing cognitive fatigability....

There are some MRI techniques that are used to measure hypoperfusion due to vascular problems/mild hypoxia, for example in acute stroke, or in...
PS I don't think reductions in rCBF indicate anything wrong with blood supply to the brain. rCBF is an index of which regions of the brain are...
