Great find, @Esther12!
Completely agree. Here at S4ME, we can be a voice for change that goes beyond our own illness.:thumbup:
I have to say, my view is the complete opposite to yours, @shak8. PwMEs are justifiably upset about how we have been treated, and are trying...
I think its difficult to judge the absolute incidence of something like pain across eras. Historically, large sections of the population would...
Some interesting passages: Remind you of anything?
Thought this might be of interest to some of you hard sciencers out there. When you read it, you just keep thinking of Sharpe, White and Wessely....
I've only just seen this. Its extraordinary that Hilda Bastian has come out so strongly in our favour. I thouhg this was a very interesting point:...
I had a look at this. At first glance it does sound plausible. According to this model, "stress" is any event or occurrence that is unexpected,...

Yes, I've tried colchicine. Its often prescribed for periodic fever syndromes, like Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF). I took it during a really...
The point I'm making is that when you get to a certain level of complexity, there's virtually never a "definitive" experiment that can settle the...
Thank you, @S-VV, that's of great interest to me. Welcome to the forum! Actually, this makes a whole lot more sense than the neutrophil stuff....
To anyone reading this hopeful story, I just wanted to add: I am weird. Although I was originally diagnosed with MECFS, it was always a "weird"...
Hi @Londinium, sorry for the slow reply! Well, since June when I last checked in, I had a nasty crash (although slightly shorter in duration than...
I'm very, very late to this party. But I found Marks' article empty and overly sensationalist. If you want to critique theories and/or methods...
Yea, it has! There was a hilarious bestselling book in 1990s "drawing with the right side of your brain" that recommended you should turn a...
