    Rethinking the treatment of CFS — a reanalysis and evaluation of findings from a recent major trial of GET and CBT (2018) Wilshire et al.

    I'm not sure what you are saying but to see all the tweets for anyone on any browser, you have to click "tweets and replies". If one clicks on "tweets", one doesn't see the replies. Nothing particularly unusual about this. https://twitter.com/cfs_research...

    PACE trial’s findings fundamentally challenged by a new study (Simon McGrath blog 22 Mar)

    Not critising but just to point out to everyone I still think it is useful to tweet, like or retweet even if one doesn't have many followers. Twitter now uses algorithms like Facebook to decide what is highlighted in people's feeds.

    A general thread on the PACE trial!

    I'm not sure whether I am misreading what you said but improvement rates of 59% and 61% were reported in the Lancet using their revised, very lax, definitions of improvement.

    A general thread on the PACE trial!

    Somebody who got this reply sent it on to me. This is not true. A paper on recovery was published in a peer-reviewed journal. Although they couldn't have referred to it here a paper is coming out soon which includes a reanalysis of the primary outcomes as well as the recovery measure.

    ME: The rise and fall of a media sensation - Patricia de Wolfe

    If I recall correctly she is a patient (I think connected with one of the London ME groups) and she did a (sociology?) PhD on the issue.

    Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Myalgic Encephalitis: It's Mitochondria, Not Hypochondria - by Sarah Myhill

    https://sci-hub.tw/http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1365-277X.2008.00933.x/full Here is a paper that looked at the issue. Unfortunately I don't think it gives normative data on diet but does say:

    MUS: "Medicine has a sexism problem" by Maya Dusenbery

    Stanford ME/CFS Initiative: PEM Avoidance Toolkit

    Though I wouldn't say all tips have no value. My family converted our garage into a room for me. I found by lying on the couch in that room during the day rather than lying on my bed I did tend to get to sleep quicker.

    Stanford ME/CFS Initiative: PEM Avoidance Toolkit

    I'm not sure whether "oversleeping" is that bad a thing in a lot of cases. I would also question the example of the teenager who plays a bit of basketball now and again: I think they are playing with fire. But I suppose you need to adjust advice to reality.

    Stanford ME/CFS Initiative: PEM Avoidance Toolkit

    I have seen a few people in recent years post good day/bad day photos side-by-side on social media. I can't remember whether there was a specific hashtag. It could be done again really at any stage.
