Yes, hence my question as to whether they are actually gauging the impact of POTS, ie, it's a 10 minute lean test. Only if they can distinguish ME/CFS from other conditions. Even then, what are they objectively capturing? Signs that suggest a proclivity or disinclination for or against being...

Ok. The cynical me wonders, though. Most research endeavors fatigue-related seem to have dubious effects on our community, at least historically. A) Other diseases/conditions have PEM, or PEM-like similarities. B) Not sure researchers as a whole know how to induce PEM reliably. Most don't even...

Another fatigue study? How will they differentiate between any other chronic condition that involves fatigue? Are couch potatoes included?
