You may remember Adam Mastroianni from such threads as this (about why peer review is crap) or this (about how people believe things could be...
I know I've already mentioned my own experience with clotting and anticoagulants here on the forum, but just in case anybody new is reading this,...
So I take it these were patients with provoked PE, like surgery or air travel or something? Or did they include patients with unprovoked PE? Would...
This is true but they also usually involve a paid union organizer (the Amazon warehouse union may be the exception that so far proves the rule)....
Ok, I'll go ahead and have a go at arguing (tentatively) for the pro-PGD position as I think currently the discussion in this thread is fixating...
This may be violating the "no politics" rule so I understand if it gets deleted but I do think the union movement needs to think beyond trades and...
Lenny Jason probably came up with the best "screening" tool to distinguish depression from chronic illness: simply ask a patient "if you felt well...
I don't think cost is the problem. My Tri-Axis pedometer, which seems to be more accurate than, say, a FitBit, is only about $25. I wear it...
I don't disagree with any of this but, to be fair to @sarahtyson, she might say the same thing about us. She might argue that we were dismissive...
I have severe ME/CFS and for the most part, step count variations can be pretty significant when you go from 600 to 50 (and vice versa). What's...
As an American, I wanted to add a little nuance to the discussion. If we want to make, say, the Sacklers the scapegoat villains in all this,...
And THAT is why we have BPS medicine: to give providers a way to not have to deal with the discomfort that comes when they can't actually do much...
Thanks for sharing your experience. It's one of those things that because we don't understand the mechanism of action in ME/CFS, it's been...
Can't help but grimly chuckle where the doctor at the end of the piece has to scold women about not eating sweets and making sure to get 7 hours...
I'm perimenopausal and my answer to the poll so far would be one that's not available: both. I started having late/missed periods in 2019. After...
Oh also I should note that I'm not as concerned necessarily with the term "psychometric." My understanding is that it simply means a way of...
@sarahtyson I too want to welcome you to the forum. While we can be a pedantic, curmudgeonly bunch, we're all about the science at the end of the...
Thanks, @SNT Gatchaman . That's helpful. Are WMHs the same as the so-called "Unidentified Bright Objects" that pwME have been seeing in MRIs for...
Please forgive my my layperson's ignorance, but did you mean WMH are CSF/fluid spaces? In the radiologist's report on my MRI, he stated that my...
I'm not sure if this is the correct thread in which to ask this, but @SNT Gatchaman's post yesterday reminded me of this thread and that I...
