    Brain fog poll

    I’m intrigued by MECFS patients with no brain fog....seems like they have a better prognosis. I think under IOM you can be diagnosed without cognitive issues.

    Brain fog poll

    Do you have brain fog (e.g. impaired concentration, cognition, etc.)? 1) Always, almost always 2) Only during PEM, otherwise I am normal 3) Never, almost never (e.g. can read long complex books with no issues) 4) Sometimes

    Rituximab and placebo response

    Sorry for slightly off topic post but, I thought we were interested in cyclophosphamide due to its effect on T-cells? E.g. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0305737215002030

    Aripiprazole - Abilify

    This is a bit harsh, I think. By a proper trial, I assume you mean a RCT trial? 1) Personal accounts are valuable because they can point researchers in a direction so that they can conduct controlled trials!! 2) The overwhelming emphasis and energy on this forum is on "combating" gaslighting...

    Why is ME/CFS getting so little research funding?

    Another reason is that MECFS never had a breakout viral campaign like ALS did. This raised over 100 million USD. https://www.cnn.com/2020/11/22/us/pat-quinn-als-ice-bucket-challenge-dead-trnd/index.html

    Aripiprazole - Abilify

    I disagree with most of the above post. I had a real dramatic response that was more than a 10% improvement (went from moderate to mild) It was not a placebo response. I am noticing reduced response at about 3 months, suggesting tachyphlaxis. I think butydoc had a response at .1 mg—why should...

    For me I don't think it's a question of overdoing it, but rather that it just stopped working.

    Mechanism for drug tachyphylaxis (poop out) in ME/CFS?

    I think you are probably correct about drugs that work in the brain.

    Mechanism for drug tachyphylaxis (poop out) in ME/CFS?

    It seems like some of us are losing our response to Abilify. Same thing happened with antivirals— they worked great until they didn’t. So why does this happen with this disease but not so much with other diseases? Please don’t make me read a long research paper......
