It would be so interesting to know if the same genes are downregulated in ME/CFS. Will maybe DecodeME answer this question?
I am om both SSRI and LDN and yet I’m still severe and bedbound. These meds don’t even scratch the surface, I don’t know why scientists keep...
This sounds like an excellent plan, I hope they will implement it quickly so that people who are affected actually get help.
