That I can believe!
I worked with a lot of people who had suffered extreme trauma in childhood. Many of them became much more balanced as a result. They did not worry...
I was always amused by the "no donations if you are from the UK" and bans on British beef. The UK tested it's beef and had regulations, other...
If you can take it, massage is excellent for ME. It has kept me mobile (not walking much but just able to move). My body wants to curl into a ball...
An unexpectedly high number of victims of the Lake Tahoe outbreak developed non- Hodgkins lymphoma. That was the reason they investigated XMRV....
In 1986 Melvin Ramsay published his book on ME where he states categorically that exercise makes ME worse by definition and so by definition if it...
Studies done at Ninewells Hospital Dundee found that elastin, which makes blood vessels supple, is wrong in ME. They found that the patients had...

This may be classed as politics so remove it if needed. There are people desperate to make a profit from the NHS and people ideologically opposed...
I think the healthy/ unhealthy line is the one. Way back I had this. I was able to pass as normal, even my friends did not know I was ill. My ME...
Sometimes I think our results are normal because they are so wrong! For instance I tend not to fall over during a romberg test (closing your eyes)...
This is all the wrong way round anyway. What is lacking is basic research into the normal biology of cells and energy production. If the complete...
That sounds very good and I would like to be wholehearted about it. I would be reluctant to tell anyone I did not think they had ME but there are...
I am finding it difficult to explain what I mean but medical professionals who became ill were felt by their colleagues as just not being up to...
I think she is confusing fatigue with sickness behaviour which was a valid thing until it was psychologised. In humans and animals infections and...
You're right, I was getting confused because SW and mates insisted the ME was actually neurasthenia as seen in Victorian times. I can only say...
