This. I'm not severely ill, but I've never experienced PEM that only lasts minutes or a couple of hours. I find it worrying that something so...
Thanks and congratulations to everyone involved in this broadcast—I've only just found out about it by logging on here. What struck me most was...
Wasn't it. I'd assumed a good number of the exclusions could be due to comorbidities / medication / recent surgery / ongoing investigation /...
I agree, but think it's only practical to do that if they're broken down into groups of symptoms on questionnaires. For instance, I'd never...
Me too, I just keep a amount for other stuff, or spot-cleaning obstinate stains on garments. My current bottle's getting a bit elderly now, but...
It's brilliant for getting accumulated breath condensate out of the heads of tin whistles, too, but that's probably a less useful tip for most...
Nothing to add about rice, but I do have a cleaning tip for yucky pans and bowls. I discovered it when I was 17 and too disorganised to put...
Yup. And DWP has confirmed today that Jobcentres will no longer issue food bank vouchers to people who can't feed themselves or their kids. Many...
It doesn't pretend to be, or need to be. They state clearly that their programme has nothing to do with medicine or treatment. The patients seem...

Yes, me too. It may turn out to be an artefact or error, but someone needs to show that before it can be abandoned. Even if it picks up evidence...
Literally never mentioned, either time. I guess it's possible the reason for the procedure makes a difference. In my case it was just general...
It all seems very inconsistent. I didn't want an anaesthetic because I'd have needed to find someone to sit with me for 24 hours afterwards, and...
From @MSEsperanza: Science Media Centre (UK) did a briefing that was accompanied by an SMC Roundup of comments:...
He certainly deserves recognition for his persistence and generosity, but if the character portrayed in the TV series is anything like him, he...
It would be crucial if it examined how to provide support to people with ME who have irregular or even no access to the internet. Or how to...
That's interesting. I've never asked for help with sleeplessness since I was prescribed various types of sleeping pills decades ago. They knocked...
But developers know what those things are, that's the point. Accelerometers measuring speed and direction work very well, so you can leverage...
