This looks like a potentially interesting resource in that it provides an open source database on RNA expression profile in blood cells (I assume for comparison with other populations to help detect potential deviations from the...
I just wanted to share an article that was recently posted to our Facebook group on ME/CFS and structural diagnoses. A woman in it who meets ME/CFS criteria was recently diagnosed with bilateral internal jugular vein stenosis (IJVS). This is considered a congenital condition, however she never...

I am trying to get my head around the question of whether ME could be a metabolic problem, as suggested by the 'something in the blood' findings by several different researchers, and by the problems with pyruvate dehydrogenase possibly blocking or reducing complete breakdown of glucose, and by...

Abstract
Myalgic encephalomyelitis / chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is a syndrome of unknown etiology characterized by profound fatigue exacerbated by physical activity, also known as post-exertional malaise (PEM). Previously, we did not detect evidence of immune dysregulation or virus...
Recently I had blood tests. Drawing my blood is almost always a problem. I wonder if this is a common phenomenon with pwME.
After several tries, a lab technician may be able to get enough of a sample for testing. If I've had to wait quite some time, all the while sitting upright, my heart may...
