I found these sort of diminished after upping my magnesium. I was having two Epsom salt baths a day at one point. However, I kept getting cramps...
I've just completed my two-day CPET at Salford. It was daunting on the first day but less so on the second day. We did the 10-minute thing with...
You're quite right, but I think the problem is that ME is something of an 'orphan' illness. There isn't a specialist to take ownership. I imagine...
That would be helpful.
Where did you hear that? It sounds unlikely. Trials don't usually 'run out of money', because you ask for however much you need to do the trial...
Of course! And I didn't mean to imply that it's you downplaying deaths, or your family. I can understand that there have been problems on social...
'Tap water masquerading as medicine'! I love it!
I should also say that I second this! Merryn's story has been instrumental in opening eyes and raising this issue for debate. Talking about it...

You may be right.
Though, as a gay man, he may be swayed by Peter Tatchell's article linking gay conversion therapy and CBT in ME. However, I think he's unlikely to...
Exactly. It's not straight-cut at all.
Interesting. Thanks for this.
I know some people who know him. I'll try to persuade them.
Maybe @Jenny TipsforME and @Nathalie Wright can help? I didn't write that section. ETA: I don't know about body work (massage, maybe?) and I have...
From the above study (extra line breaks added): Which I find very interesting. This is really useful for diagnosing ME, because it sifts out...
Separate names with a comma.
