    Unevidenced recommendations of brain retraining in Bateman Horne Centers clinical guide for ME and longcovid

    Thank you for these blog posts @MittEremltage , especially the careful breakdown of how vague the BHC section on neuroplasticity really is. Their response only highlights the problem: either they don’t understand what these programs involve, or they won’t. Either they haven’t read, or are...

    Paul Garner on Long Covid and ME/CFS - BMJ articles and other media.

    That’s not what I said, you’re twisting my words. If you have an acute onset of a virus, having ME or not, it’s bad not being examined or having follow ups, that’s what he said, if you look at the context.

    News about Long Covid including its relationship to ME/CFS 2020 to 2021

    I’ve had glandular fever, my ME got much worse after that. This is something else. Too soon to say it’s ‘post’ about a totally new virus or to compare to other ‘old’ viruses. And in what way our bodies will be chronically affected and when (if). The most common symptom (and damage to) is from...

    Paul Garner on Long Covid and ME/CFS - BMJ articles and other media.

    Of course it’s important to point out if there’s some phrases that could be misunderstood by others, but I’ve seen comments that’s really not helping our advocacy. This could be a grate opportunity to explain what PVFS or ME really is and share experiences or knowledge instead of questioning or...

    Netflix "Afflicted" - ME included

    Well, I wish it wouldn’t be so misused, because for me it’s a painful reality to be so sensitive to perfumes and chemicals, and the Primer for ME explains it like this: “Multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS). A number of patients with ME/CFS also have MCS. Rather than an allergic response, their...

    Netflix "Afflicted" - ME included

    I totally agree. I’ve seen all episodes, and even Jameson’s md is a ‘quacker’ (an md that works with integrative and functional medicine. That was the case with most of the experts), and that doesn’t look good at all. And I’ve seen a lot of people get hypocondric when they go to alternative...
