Perhaps this is why there are recent efforts to trace and check status of PACE participants? And NOD data?

You are what you eat after all

Could we not have a venn diagram - perhaps similar to the one in Nature for the differences in cerebrospinalfluid after exercise CFS/GWI/Depression, ( attached) but for the different diagnostic criteria - images are easier to process? This may help make sense of issues

Ah - this is patient engagement. Ticky box
