Incidence age is bimodal for [ME/CFS], with higher severity burden for early onset disease, 2026, McGrath et al

I think I will ask in my czech -slovak group to check if we fit with these onset disease peaks? How many patients do you need to participate that the results are statisticaly significant?
 
I made a post on reddit about this paper because I don't think it's gotten enough attention in the wider community. I'm very happy with the amount of engagement it has gotten. People of course shared their ages they developed ME/CFS at, with probably a higher incidence of those around the two peaks.

However, what I did not expect was people sharing an initial development at the first peak and a relapse at the second peak. Multiple people said they first experienced ME/CFS as a teenager, went into a remission for multiple years later on, but then relapsed in their mid thirties. I was absolutely shocked. I had never considered that the remission and relapses could also follow the age peaks! Has anyone here who has experienced a remission then had a relapse around 37 years old?

@chillier and @Simon M, were you aware of this happening? Was there any chance for you to record this or at least learn about it while making your paper?
