Good that you verified that you were receiving the updated version. A month ago on X I was reading that some received the old version and now have to wait another 3-6 months to get the updated version. They were pretty pissed about it. The Public Health Agency of Canada As Canadians has...

I hope your improvements continue. Did you receive a M.E diagnosis from contracting Covid?

From the link posted above: The importance of a multidisciplinary approach to these patients with rheumatology, physiotherapy, and pain management cannot be overstated. Unfortunately, many patients experience disjointed care within the NHS, and long delays in diagnosis and treatment Due to...

Over 20 years ago I watched a program where a Canadian doctor had evidence that various microbes have been identified in the postmortem brain tissues of human AD patients. Among bacterial pathogens in AD, chlamydia pneumoniae has been well characterized in human AD brains and is a leading...

She is the first person with type 1 diabetes to receive this kind of transplant. A 25-year-old woman with type 1 diabetes started producing her own insulin less than three months after receiving a transplant of reprogrammed stem cells. She is the first person with the disease to be treated...

@Ash This is so wrong for a person who disabled/ill to have to go out for a vaccine only to be told that you're not eligible when you get there :mad: Exactly. I hope you can figure out a way to get the Novavax. When they offered home visits at the start of the pandemic for a couple...

@AliceLily from what I've read is that it is common for women going through menopause to also have an underactive thyroid. Both thyroid and menopause-related symptoms are common, non-specific and overlapping. Mine is most likely low too but I haven't had testing done in a few years. My...

The program will create vaccines for various elusive herpesviruses that infect most Americans and cause cancer, autoimmune disease, and birth defects “These are not vaccines against viruses you might get—they’re vaccines against viruses you already have,” said Saphire. “It may be enough for the...

Quebec doctors are paid less for medical procedures on women: study The gaps range from 33 to 218 per cent, and the association of Quebec OB-GYNs says there is no medical reason to justify the difference. “I think Quebecers have the right to know that the value given to care given to a woman...

@Kitty is Novavax approved in the U.K? I'm going over to the walk-in clinic like I did last December. No appointment. It's only a 5 min walk from my place. I'll take whatever they give me.

I wish Novavax was available in Canada, it would significantly increase vaccination uptake. It's up to the provinces whether to buy and distribute, but they would have to meet the minimum order numbers.

I've had underactive thyroid off and on since getting M.E The initial viral onset produced 'extremely' elevated anti-thyroid antibodies. I also had a mild sore throat, ear and vertigo for 6 months during onset.

I did ART for 6 years post initial viral infection. I could have laid still for the next 20 years and still developed delayed PEM once I started living a normal life and doing low impact exercise again. I feel that M.E was already in the cards from the day I contracted the initial virus...

I've mentioned this several times before, the mornings and evenings are vastly different in my case, I don't feel the need to lie down in the evenings to 'recover' unless I've really overdone myself. Morning and afternoons are the worse. @Jonathan Edwards do pwRA or other autoimmune...

Needing to lie flat during the first 5.5 of PVFS was mostly an equilibrium/tired issue. That feeing resolved once I started to feel 'recovered'. I had no issues being upright for long periods of time after that. Second round. Needing to lie flat started from reactivation of EBV and...

Abstract Drug repurposing—identifying new therapeutic uses for approved drugs—is often a serendipitous and opportunistic endeavor to expand the use of drugs for new diseases. The clinical utility of drug-repurposing artificial intelligence (AI) models remains limited because these models focus...
