I've just looked up the name of the drug, and I'm pretty sure it's the same stuff my nan swore by 50 years ago! :laugh: She used to buy it over...
But CPET is neither validated nor a biomarker. That's part of the problem. People giving detailed accounts of the symptoms they experience in PEM...
Even a prime minister can't change healthcare practice. They can damage it, create conditions to improve it, announce priorities they hope will...
I don't think putting anyone through a 2-day CPET to investigate diagnostic questionnaires is ethical. I'm beginning to doubt there's ever a...
It would be hard for an individual patient—there are so many people telling recovery stories that the auto-response is an eye roll. It might be...
Admittedly I haven't read a lot of case reports, but I get the impression they focus on clinical observations that might be useful or important....
I'm still stuck on internal medicine specialists, and wondering what external medicine is. Maybe they deal with problems like hair so resistant...

That's interesting—though I guess not surprising. It might have a significant role in contributing to PEM, especially as once it starts, it's...
Completely get that, and the need to exploit whatever angles you can. You might even be able to frame one aspect of the research as a useful...
I've no idea what's actually happening in the body, but for me the adrenaline pump feels like the backup battery kicking in. I don't get it...
I agree it's potentially a useful hook to attract attention to a project, but as others have said, returning to work is the most challenging step...
This! I was trying to say something about it when I was waffling about food yesterday, but couldn't muster a string of words that made sense.
I suppose if they got an excellent response in a high proportion of participants there might be an ethical argument for moving quickly to Phase...
