I only know because it was explained to me during my (very late) diagnosis for high functioning autism! It would be impossible for most people to...
Not everyone with sensory integration issues is autistic. Essentially, if your proprioceptive sense doesn't work well, your brain has trouble...
If you're relying on the proprioceptor effect that helps overstimulation in autistic people, the weight only needs to be on major joints such as...
GenoME? I'd quite like not to have CFS in whatever the name is, even if it has to go in the strap line to clarify for newer patients. Given the...
Sorry you're feeling so crap – I hope it improves soon. To be honest, I buy whatever's on sale at the time. My latest are from MyProtein, called...
I find the information hard to interpret too, as it requires an understanding of biochemistry that I lack entirely. But I think this sentence is...
@TigerLilea has spotted something I didn't: the steroid spray. These make me crash very badly within 24 hours of starting them, and have been the...
I think so too. I'm reasonably lucky in 'only' having tree pollen allergy, so the season runs from March to the end of May; after that the...

This is exciting, and crucial, research. Given that we have both the ICC criteria and recent work on characterising PEM, I think it'll be possible...
I've had tinnitus since before I developed ME (too many live gigs in the 70s – Cabaret Voltaire basically play 24/7 in my head!) It only varies if...
I agree, I'm inclined to think it's a coincidence. Both joint laxity and ME occur in my maternal family; however, so does red hair, bradycardia,...
I experience this symptom too, very much as others have described. I can sustain it for several days, and if the amount of sleep is just right...
Do we even know whether hypermobility with subluxations/dislocations is a single condition? Or indeed, whether it's a condition we're born with,...
Thankfully long gone now! I was lucky enough to have the early menopause that some women with ME seem to experience, so my endometriosis symptoms...
'No further impact on functioning' is a strange finding. I'm from an extended family where most of the women had/have endometriosis, and most...
Lovely story, though it's a shame she had to do it that way. But it's still a pilgrimage, and she obviously got a lot out of it, so hey...you do...
