I watched. Dr Lipkin shared that he still had after effects of COVID, mostly fatigue. He is rehabbing through exercise. Said he didn’t get COVID while in China, but believes he got it during a television interview.
From the presentation of Dr Avi Nath, there will be a study examining the long...
I believe my C1 is fused to the skull, from birth. I remember this from chiropractor xrays, a long while ago. Go figure, i save myself a surgery :rolleyes: I would not know if this causes me any restrictions, as i do not know otherwise. Maybe head extension is restricted...
Hi @leokitten I tend to agree with you to a degree, and you made sure to mention ‘under normal conditions’. However there are certain drugs that require careful monitoring such as lithium, tobramycin, gentamycin and others. Drugs that depend on a normal kidney and liver function will become...
It is a CBT/GET program, and there is a chance that a few patients who also happen to have ME will be harmed by this kind of program. I am not sure whether this team is even aware of this.

Very honestly, if you do not have evidence that anything is working in terms of treatments, stop telling patients they need to try alternative therapies and supplements, because there is no evidence for that either. And if you are advocating for physician led group therapy and CBT, you better...
MSNBC had 2 COVID-19 clips segments of interest tonight. one pertained to the UK clinical trial opabout inoculating 90 young adults (18-30) with COVID and trialling vaccines and treatments on them. The trial is set to start in January but seemingly there are ethical concerns now, since there are...
The key word in this abstract is supine. They tested patients at rest, and horizontally. Would there be any change in cardiac function when tilted vertically? In which way cardiac function would be different when vertical, considering that orthostatic intolerance is present in just about 100% of...
Biomarkers. We need biomarkers. And while disability support is much needed as it is difficult to prove you are disabled, we need to be careful in my view to not encourage a for-profit test that is not well accepted in the medical community. Ideally a Widely available test that does not rely on...
