I don't think this will work. If you have low CO2 all you need to do is breath a bit more slowly or less deeply and it will come up. (Unless of...
Yes, in the world of grant-assessing advisory boards. There is also a high risk of loss of faith between patients and doctors if patient go to...
I wish that were true. If it is the result of counting it is likely to be easily biased.
I can't see how the CO2 sensor actually works but having that put on may be stressful in itself - and more stressful for patients than for...
I think they probably are the only two options. CO2 physiology is fairly simple. If production is reduced respiratory drive is reduced so no...
Yes, a remarkable piece of doublethink. So presumably also a nice measure of the capacity of the investigators to manipulate themselves into...
As far as I know the only explanation for Hypocapnia during a lean test would be over breathing. Over breathing during a lean test as part of a...
If anyone looking up reference 18 from Flottorp et al is still reading it may be worth point out something raised by a member on another thread....
A good point. I might make another note on reference 18.
I have read through it. I agree that the article is generally helpful. I also agree that the first main point comes across clearly and is rightly...

IN case anyone is looking up reference 18 from: https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(22)00183-0/fulltext I would urge...
I thought perhaps I should add a post to reference 18 just in case someone looks it up!
I have been a physician for fifty plus years and never come across this usage! Nothing difficult, but it's backwards. You are talking about a...
Yes of course, but what has that to do with the discussion? If levels are low and there are recognised clinical features of low B12...
MEpedia may think that but it is not a medical usage. I don't know if anyone who would say that other than to mean 'unimportant'....
That MEpedia page doesn't make any sense to me as a physician. Consequential means as a consequence of, that is all. In ME nobody knows what the...
Spots don't seem to have much to do with ME though.
'Experts discover that looking at a blue cardigan for long periods shrinks your brain.'
The NICE committee looked at the evidence for drugs for ME and found nothing justifying recommendation. I would question how a consultant...
