Thank you. I think what Walitt is trying to do is to find a new spin on BPS, quite similar to what the new FND brigade is doing. At the very...
Thanks for sharing. First off, this is not my experience at all. There is no lack of willingness to act or exert in my experience of ME. I very...
I think the thing that stands out to me the most is that there was not a single patient with POTS. Unless pwPOTS were conciously excluded, which...
Not your buddy. This has nothing to do with the patients, obviously. If these patients have Fukuda ME/CFS and no POTS, frankly they should not...
Biggest effing joke. I really don't think you could come up with such results unless you planned to do so. I am serious about this. It's just not...
I actually didn't want to, for my very own sake, get into the Walitt effort bullshit, but the fact that this people seriously build up a...
This paper is a complete joke and evidence for the NIH's semi-fraudulent behavior in regards to ME/CFS. If somebody would tell you to make an...
I want to say that I do know that you are a specialist in that area, I have talked to other specialists, though. (I am not even close to being a...
Sure! I am not against having better data. However, a good way to obtain the best/correct epidemiological data is to work with the CDC numbers,...
Both can be true, the prevalence numbers are for whatever reason too high and the new prevalence numbers can be used effectively by advocacy to...
Certainly not a top tier journal.
Exactly the same thing going on. 100% the same thing. I think it might not only be that ME sits on top of these symptoms, it might actually be the...
Agreed that the journal doesn't indicate 'big findings' especially as Nath delayed the whole thing by not putting it in preprint in the first...
Not so much about point scoring but gatekeeping and bias in the name of 'the real science'.
These are quite the statements by Nath, if true, especially if a pathogen is the antigen in question, I wonder how the patient commentators on...
I don't think so. The term PEM was coined in 1992 specifically for (ME/)CFS precisely because there was no existing term to describe such an...
Thank you, Simon! I see it similarly, mostly. Can we be sure we are not seeing PEM in later stages of e.g. AIDS and untreated Hepatitis C,...
Hi Frenchguy, what symptom(s) prompted you to go for another MRI, what made you or the doctor reconsider and think it could be MS? I am a very...
Moved post Has there anyone somewhat qualified ever explained why the SPECT scan results by Hyde are "no evidence"?
While that is interesting, they also probably drank a lot of Sprite, that doesn't necesarily mean that's relevant to their later ME. We should...
