Timely item. I recently had inflammation in two places in my gums. I thought a root canal had gone bad, and was expecting my gum to puff up...
My concern is that it sounds like its goal is creating and maintaining a bureaucracy. Politicians like that, since they can point to it as...
Too disappointing? It's much more exciting to read about a new pill that is going to make you slim, trim and healthy forever.
Aren't most age-related disease due to telomeres reaching their "no more replacement" limit? Well, there's also accumulated debris and damage...
Principle 3 seems kind of hard to follow, since we don't know how an AI makes the decisions it does. We don't know how humans do this either. I...
ME could cause neurological effects that make muscles work less efficiently, which could raise those factors. Likewise, PWME likely do less...
I'm ignorant about the actual value of genetic studies for diagnosis or treatment. I know there are some diseases which are defined by a...
Yes. IMO there hasn't been adequate evidence to support risky pharmaceutical treatments for ME. However, if a PWME really, really wants to try a...
Add "reliably" to that. There may be people who trigger PEM, but only occasionally, so they don't link exertion with the symptoms. For that...
Food allergies and intolerances are part of ME. I probably reported that I was intolerant of malic acid (apples). Likewise carrots, while I was...
The problem with this approach is that individuals might have different circuitry. It could be that PWME have a circuit that has high sensitivity...
ME and LC are natural disasters. Putting it in a financial context that politicians understand should help.
Actually, it isn't, because our knowledge of the actual risks and benefits of something like LDN for ME is no better than our knowledge of the...
Ah, but what about treatments that aren't known to reliably cause harm to PWME? After all, water is known to cause harm in certain situations....
I think gut research is still in the very early stages. It's not as simple as studying one single aspect, such as maldigestion of a single sugar....
I'm sorry there aren't more people who have found reliable PEM-blockers. That would add another comparison: trigger activated, but with or...
With the PEM/non-PEM testing, you can add individuals who have reliable cognitive triggers, as another comparison. I think cognitive-triggered...
Not easy at all. There are just too many factors that change during exertion ... and time of day, and day to day, and what they ate and what...
I think it would be better to find a few people with reliable PEM triggers and responses, and do PEM/non-PEM comparisons for those individuals....
I wouldn't consider it even barely started. Decades of doing the same blood tests over and over doesn't constitute basic science. We still don't...
