Bearing in mind I do not have ME/CFS. I have had a few severe bouts of cellulitis over the years, which amongst other things manifests with a...
Yes, I agree. May be a bit too clunky for some ill people to manage.
A good friend/colleague of mine died a while back from cancer. He was by nature an extremely optimistic and positive person, as is his wife....
Try it and see, then the explanation will be clear to you. It makes you feel like sh*t anyway, but then add onto that the burden of not being...
And the point for my post was to: Make it very clear from the outset that to try anything for real would be very stupid. Trying to understand...
What comes across to me in this thread is: there is no single word that can possibly describe that component of pwME's suffering that...
As I said in my original post, I think it would be extremely silly to try such an experiment for real, for all sorts of reasons: Not properly...
Which is why I say it was a thought experiment. I acknowledge I did not fully appreciate tryptophan had other important roles*, but in the context...

This sums it up really. 'Fatigue', 'exhaustion', etc, are the nearest words we typically have to describe symptoms that are inadequately described...
@RDP said: This intrigues me, because the flux described here relates to molecule conversions per unit time. The biological pathways between this...
I think one of the greatest advocacy hurdles, albeit not necessarily recognised as such, is the fact non-sufferers cannot know what it is like to...
[My bold] When will these people learn to tell their 'arris from their elbow! Properly diagnosed ME/CFS is not due to to being deconditioned,...
I would think it important to have more understanding and reporting of the dropouts. Else it's like doing a study on 69 cars to see if they pass...
This is as far as I can get. Do you need to login to get any further? None of the links seems to get me to it. [ATTACH]
[ATTACH] Surely there is something else significant about this graph, other than the very high value reached by the "ME/CFS Cells in CFS Plasma"...
You wouldn't even need the internet. Just programme them to self-administer their own CBT. Could have a little screen and speaker built into their...
