    David Tuller: Trial By Error: Professor Crawley’s Bogus BuzzFeed Claims - 17th January 2018

    That is a very good point. I remember from a lecture by prof. Sommerfelt (neurologist and paediatrician with long experience on children and adolescents with ME) saying that in a consultation, when he asks the child/teenager how often he/she has been to school lately, the patient often gives a...

    USA: NIH National Institutes of Health news - latest ME/CFS webinar 14 Jan 2025

    I assumed a word was dropped out and that the sentence was supposed to be: it's very hard for me to see how that criticism is not fair when you hear stories of people who've gone rather suddenly from a full life to bedridden status -- something dramatic happened there

    Trial By Error: My Six-Month Review

    New blog post from David Tuller: Trial By Error: My Six-Month Review Given the amount of reporting still left to be done, I will be deciding in the next couple of months whether to conduct another crowdfunding campaign to support another year of work after June 30th. :woot:

    Tricia Pendergrast et al on housebound versus non-housebound ME-patients. Study correctly described?

    Lost all respect for Wyller as a researcher after he recently claimed in the Journal for the Norwegian Medical Association that of course ME-patients should be encouraged to try Lightning Process. :banghead: Wasn't a big fan before either, and I think it is telling that he NEVER attends the...

    Warm brain

    Thank you @Marco This sounds exactly as what we're talking about. I've thought about this, if elevated brain temperature can be discovered by MRI-testing. I am thrilled to learn this is being looked in to. If I were anywhere close to Alabama, I'd sign up to take part in the research. The video...

    Warm brain

    Huh, that's a good idea. I'll try using an ice package (even though the ice cream binge I thought of earlier does sound more tempting). You might want to see the YouTube video of Jarred Younger that @Marco has posted above. Very interesting.

    Warm brain

    Interesting also to hear about an opposite experience. Doesn't sound comfortable though, and I hope the symptom will decline again soon.

    Are there symptoms you had in the early stages of ME that you no longer get?

    Maybe someone would like to link this thread to him, or perhaps start a new one based on his question? Edit to add: I can't remember any twitches or spasms from the first years, but it started about 15 years in. Often it is tugs in the left arm, but it can be in both legs at the same time as...

    Warm brain

    Thank you @Subtropical Island This was interesting. Although I have to admit I'm considering making this into an excuse for an ice cream binge. :woot:

    Warm brain

    Thank you for your inputs and thoughts @Invisible Woman @Marco @Indigophoton Never actually discussed this with anyone before, so very interesting to hear from others. I am looking forward to learn more about Jarred Younger's approach and if he can reveal anything. That was news to me, but...

    Warm brain

    There is a symptom which I think has arrived only recently, which means during the last few years. I might have had it before, then the symptom declined, and I forgot about it. I don't even know what to call it. Brain fever? Warm brain? If I concentrate too much, it actually feels as if the...

    NBN Television newsnight report from 1988 + documentary from 1993

    OMG. This would have been both quite topical and updated had it been sent today. All the years that have been lost on nonsense..

    Unrest - reviews and general articles

    Thank you. That was very interesting; to see what impression "outsiders" are left with after having seen the documentary. Seems Unrest did its job pretty well for those in the discussion.
