I wonder if they were capable of capturing cases of ME/CFS that did not follow mononucleosis, or if they just followed cases with a positive mono...
I'm doing this mostly from memory, but at the bottom of on Page 35 of the hardback edition of "Osler's Web," Los Angeles internist Herbert Tanney...
From the abstract: There may also have been a history of cases labeled as "sporadic" because those involved were unaware of just how many...
I don't know if this relates, but one of the weird symptoms I noticed when I first became ill was that my heart would start pounding within five...
Well, that's good news. My cardiologist seems to think that "Long QT syndrome" refers to a QT interval longer than half a second. I'll tell him it...
Yeah - as I've mentioned before, I only noticed PEM a couple of years after onset, after my symptoms had improved somewhat. I wouldn't first hear...
Sounds like "behavioral symptoms" may be those that can not easily be objectively quantified (as opposed to, say, temperature), but rather rely on...

The insanity of the concept of "secondary gains" in ME/CFS exposes a fundamental lack of understanding of seriousness of the disease. No one would...
The CDC has issued some guidance regarding the possibility of allergic reactions to Coivid-19 vaccines. Apparently, 6 people in the US have had a...

I assume this is referring to the discovery of increased ASPH in the cells of patients, but can you patent a discovery of this kind? You could...
I never noticed this before but... In the 1961 science-fiction film (not the TV show) "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea," a psychiatrist aboard...
So there's a chance my brain could be harboring tomato spotted wilt virus? :cautious: Just as I've long suspected. :)
