Abstract The pathogenesis of Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) remains unclear, though increasing evidence suggests inflammatory processes play key roles. In this study, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) was used to...

The article has been updated. There is still bad info on exercise therapy etc. They have changed the name to ME/CFS though.

Mine started with EBV, I had no health issues before. I was ill with mono for 3 weeks. I still tried to live a normal life during the first week (even tried to work out) but it just got worse and worse, so eventually I had to stay in until I "recovered" because I was too ill. After three weeks...

I have posted a Hungarian article about ME/CFS in the Visegrád thread (the article is translated to English in my post). There is an ethnic Hungarian doctor from Targu Mures/Marosvásárhely (Romania) talking about the disease in it, so I'm sharing the link to that thread here too, maybe someone...

There was an article a couple of days ago in Nők Lapja, a well-known women's magazine about ME/CFS. It is a mixed bag, starts pretty badly but then it talks about PEM, pacing, orthostatic intolerance, things that are basically never mentioned on the Hungarian internet (neither by the media, nor...

Just skimmed through it to see what it says about GET for example.

I only saw Trainspotting as a teen, so not very recently but I remember there were some pretty disgusting (drug-related) scenes in it and my first thought was maybe he somehow wants to show the ugly or shocking side of the disease or similar. But I'm probably wrong as this is the paragraph...

I can't really eat a lot in a bad crash but I simultaneously crave carbs like crazy, especially sweet things, pastry etc. It feels like my body is telling me to get more energy right now.

I think it is probably a US vs Europe thing. Here people go to medical school directly after secondary school too but is 6 years (plus specializing afterwards).

Maybe about a year ago someone in my group, a recovered covid long hauler asked me about this. She was very interested in Chinese medicine and recently started learning massage as a hobbi (maybe she even said she had found massage helpful, I don't remember now). She asked me if she could offer...

Press release: COVID may trigger chronic fatigue syndrome “Our results offer a snapshot in time, and find that in 2022, 14% of people who had ME/CFS-like illness developed it after COVID,” said senior author Jacek Skarbinski, MD, a research scientist with the Kaiser Permanente Division of...

Posts moved from United Kingdom: Cases of people with ME/CFS with severe feeding problems, in the media ______________ The Times: Patients with severe ME at risk of starvation, doctors say Nearly 200 health professionals have written to the health secretary saying that patients with the...

Ádám Dénes neurobiologist researcher was asked to comment on a long covid study on the channel RTL (link to video). I've mentioned Dénes several times here, he is one of the (neuroimmune) long covid researchers here but he also seems to be as unaware (or ignorant) of ME/CFS and post-viral...

An article in the women's magazine WMN with pediatricians (resident doctors) Réka Garai and Vivien Herczeg. I occasionally post here conference abstracts from Hungarian pediatricians on long covid, these conference abstracts are from these doctors (my very last post just above this one for...

And it is "amazing".

The participants of the study were older but they were not hospitalized during acute covid. They had a mild or moderate infection.

Boglárka Nagy Andrea B. Protzner, Balázs Czigler & Zsófia Anna Gaál Abstract Post-COVID syndrome manifests with numerous neurological and cognitive symptoms, the precise origins of which are still not fully understood. As females and older adults are more susceptible to developing this...

Saw this on Facebook from the Croatian ME/CFS/Fibromyalgia/Dysautonomia patient org. Facebook translation (I guess ME/SKU is ME/CFS?): "Dear all, We invite you to the meeting and congress of Slovenian, Serbian and Croatian societies for ME/SKU, which will be held on the 14th. September in...

I'm mostly sharing this because there have been a couple of articles about this study here in Hungary in the media in the last couple of days. And there was one article on a health website that said that the health conditions with the strongest association with depression are CFS, fibro, IBS...
