    World ME Alliance, was previously IAFME: International Alliance for ME

    Facebook is not so good at these things, especially if it's not a cookie-cutter type of example. Ads need to be preapproved for example and it is run by an algorithm/AI, people only check it if you disagree and appeal. I agree it would be better to be able to include a short message when you...

    Prognosis and persistence of smell and taste dysfunction in patients with covid-19: meta-analysis..., 2022, Toh et al

    Here professor Janszky (a neurologist) keeps hinting at that. The UK Biobank found changes in areas connected to the olfactory cortex in people who had caught covid and so did he and he thinks that the affected areas in the orbitofrontal cortex might play a role in long covid somehow.

    Opinion piece by Keith Kahn-Harris. For 30 years, I tried to ‘fight’ it. In the end, I found relief in embracing my identity as a person with a disability. In my second year at university, I came down with the Epstein-Barr virus, and I expected to fully recover. Sure, I knew it would take...

    Burning muscles — is it myalgia / pain?

    I can't answer this either, I just wanted to say that I have this too. However, in my case this doesn't happen when I do something on an "OK" day. I only experience this kind of muscle burn when I overexert myself on an already bad day. This is how I'm sure this can't be the result of...

    United Kingdom: Science Media Centre (including Fiona Fox)

    I came across this article in Google News and it showed me a short part of a sentence (relevant to the keyword I used): "Another example relates to the activism of chronic fatigue syndrome (myalgic encephalomyelitis or encephalopathy) campaigners, whose fury at..." So it's probably "worth"...

    So now I seem to have some sound sensitivity but I don't know if it is the typical ME/CFS hypersensitivity or not. I never had sound or light sensitivity before, even when I felt much worse at the beginning of my illness. In the past few years I've been getting worse and worse though and this...
