    Action for M.E. 2019 AGM and conference 15th October 2019

    This was definitely highlighted last year. Don’t seem to be listening.

    ME Association magazine summer 2019

    What evidence is there that any people with ME whose energy levels improve are being excessively cautious about increasing activity? My assumption is that it’s likely to be the opposite

    ME Association magazine summer 2019

    The trouble is so many people talk about their own experience without thinking or understanding the bigger picture. On a Facebook post by a random person with ME that’s understandable when you’re chair of ME Association not so much. To me the comment “no matter how I feel I always get out of...

    Fundraising: Manchester (UK) Primary Care research: Exploring Trauma & Distressing Experiences Following Medical Encounters.

    Shared to local Facebook group. We had a display at Millions Missing with a white coat with all the negative comments written on it. My personal experience is relatively minor but I was laughed at for asking if I might have Fibromyalgia because “you don’t get a sore throat with that”. I...

    Eye movement deficits in ME/CFS and sleep deprivation

    My eyes are pretty good and the issues I have can be attributed to being mid 50s as eyesight deteriorates with age I have slight problems with close vision and slight problem with distance vision. I also have dry eyes which is a recently identified issue (by me) confirmed by optician again I...

    Treatment for Gulf War Illness (GWI) with KPAX002 (methylphenidate hydrochloride + GWI nutrient formula) - Holodniy, Kaiser Aug 2019

    Wasn’t KPAX a planet Kevin Spaceys character said he came from. Can’t remember what film. Seems a bizarre choice for a name for an alleged medication

    Adolescent recovery

    What other than assumption is the basis for saying anyone with milder forms have higher spontaneous recovery chance. How many times do we hear of people who had ME as an adolescent where it “returns” later.

    SCOPE : Q&A about chronic fatigue or Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME/CFS) with Dr Charles Shepherd

    He’s got his own approach it’s not what I would do in his situation but clearly he believes it’s what will bring most influence to bear. Activity is definitely one where I think his line to take doesn’t highlight the situation from severe perspective. I also would like to see evidence to...

    Perrin Technique

    Ive tried it not long after I was diagnosed. i get swollen glands as part of flare ups so thought it possibly would be relevant to me. But I couldn’t tolerate the massage it made me sore.

    Will an app a day, keep the doctor away? A critical look at BPS based phone apps.

    Exactly bad stuff happens to everyone if you live long enough. Even rich people have bad stuff in their lives, poor people multiply that by 10. Makes me sick the way these people twist it round to make money out of people.

    Individual differences in social network size linked to nucleus accumbens and hippocampal volumes in [FND]: A pilot study, 2019, Perez et al

    Either people on here like @Peter Trewhitt are geniuses or these researchers are really really thick why can they not pick up these issues themselves?

    Assessing cellular energy dysfunction in CFS/ME using a commercially available laboratory test, 2019, Morten, Newton et al

    Surely the accurate thing to say about what happened would be they were confident it was helpful for diagnosis, their own research backed this up. Then the right thing to say for the future would be but as that hasn’t been replicated it won’t be used diagnostically in future. Maybe they can...
