So at least we should perhaps be less concerned that the patients didn't have PEM. The low CCC rate is puzzling as you say but I have always...
Looking at the article @Lucibee, I think this is OK. She sent me this 'quote' which was her paraphrase, and I said I thought it captured the...
It may be for 'flu and the sequence of sentences is not ideal, but if the mechanism is driving symptoms in ME it IS a problem. We don't even know...
To me the whole problem here is that pWME will be thinking differently throughout the whole process simply because they know that they their...
Quite, the Stat News piece looks like the beginning of a trail of Chinese whispers drawing on whatever men is at hand.
I am not clear how effort preference differs from central fatigue but someone may be able to clarify that. Effort preference is clearly a bad...
Maybe one tangible step forward here is just the list of experts used by SMC. That must surely be a quantum change?

Another point maybe worth making is that prednisolone doses above 25mg daily produce a very significant high and sense of well being even if you...
Just a neat example of how much meaningless dross is out there in the literature. We have discussed all of those studies on the forum I think....
I personally think we can be 98% sure there is no inflammation in ME or Long Covid. Even with well documented B cell/antibody driven diseases the...
I thought it was very well done indeed. Merryn's mother, Sonya Chowdhury and Sean O'Neil were given the chance to be very clear and informative....
Anything from 5mg to 60mg daily and in those days maybe up to 120mg prednisolone equivalent per day for acute life threatening situations. Our...
Our experience with 1000mg pulses of prednisolone in lupus was that there was no advantage over standard dosage. As Trish says, I hope you are...
