I remember when I was first diagnosed the whole cold showers and baths thing was still kicking around for ME patients. My consultant mentioned...
Ah yes, the definition of recovery, a slippery thing.....
One of the problems I noticed when I first became ill was when swimming. At the time I didn't put this down to breathing but maybe it is a factor...
Yep. This is what I find. Don't allow your breathing to become laboured. On the occasions I manage to join my husband & dog on their walks, if...
Good question - no, it doesn't always or necessarily feel like out of breath the way it would because I'd been running too hard when well for...
Arguably, if they had taken it seriously in the first place many of those chronically ill adults might be productive if an effective treatment, if...
Well Jo Daniels, no, we don't know what works for ME/CFS because there's been naff all by way of decent quality research. On the other hand we do...
I have had spells where I became very breathless a lot more easily than usual. I tended to put it down to my underactive thyroid and/or anaemia....

Sure but it's still wildly inaccurate. Lots of diseases that can be tested for and where severity can be physically assessed by tests later on in...
Subjective health complaints - interesting term. Ultimately, aren't all health complaints subjective? We can only experience them through our...
Yes, I think this is true & may well muddy the waters. Possibly the majority of people with "long covid" contracted the virus but without...
Absolutely. :thumbup:
Wessely once said something about "treatment" for ME patients being about giving the patient the opportunity to reverse course without a loss of...
I think Vogt is doing a fantastic job - of demonstrating exactly the kind of zealotry we're up against. Someone makes a reasonable criticism and...
I have no answers for you @Snow Leopard. Sorry. I do know exactly what you mean though. It really makes me laugh in an ironic sort of way when...
Sorry, I'm probably not being clear. It's the usage of the same terms, or the possible mistake by healthy individuals that they might mean the...
That's the snag for me though, what I felt was totally unlike anything I had felt before. I'd never run a marathon when well but as a teen took...
