If Sarin is indeed the cause of GWI, then I guess we need to figure out how Sarin exposure leads to a permanent CFS-like state. I'm guessing it is...
When it comes to CPET tests I think we should not focus on the drop in performance that much, but more on the failure to increase performance. It...
Yes it is logical that it should be higher. But I just a read study that said that half of the participants had normal lactate at rest. I think...
Well that goes back to my original question. Maybe indeed they just mask it, but maybe they affect one or more things that are wrong with us in a...
Yes, indeed being in such a state could trigger PEM if one is not careful, that's for sure. What I am interested in however, is how stress...
I have noticed that adrenaline or some other stress hormone (possibly cortisol) dramatically improves my fatigue and many symptoms temporarily. To...
No wonder, when I got sick, the most objective sign that something was wrong was my sudden reduction in cardiovascular endurance. Literally...
Could anti-histamines also be helpful in a subset of people with ME/CFS? Any anecdotal reports? I am pretty sure that I have an intolerance to...
By the way, I've read that regular exercise increases NO levels. If their theory is correct, does that mean that mild / moderate exercise could be...
For me it's the same. Mental exertion doesn't just trigger fatigue, but other completely unrelated symptoms, like muscle pain that you mentioned...
Some things we know about ME/CFS support his hypothesis. Namely how you could get PEM from cognitive exertion alone implies that something is...
Mg Oxide is very poorly absorbed, I remember reading one study where Mg Citrate's effect on blood Mg levels was several times higher than Mg...
Didn't another thread mention something being wrong with nitric oxide (NO)? I'm still trying to figure out if magnesium helps me. I'm not certain...
Maybe it is possible. I don't think there has been much or any research on how cells react to low level hypoxia or reduced micro-circulation. It...
This theory (endothelial / vessel dysfunction) makes sense to me. If the micro blood vessels are constricted, then not enough oxygen would get to...
The neurological symptoms we experience don't necessarily have to be caused by (neuro)inflammation, there could well be hundreds of other possible...
That's an interesting theory. Personally I find adrenaline release to be beneficial to me. Not just immediately when it occurs but for several...
That number sounds pretty shocking to me. If this is generalizable does this imply that 95% of people with CFS/ME are actually misdiagnosed? I...
I don't know what they mean, but maybe being too sedetary could make our condition worse? I guess being somewhat active, being careful not to...
Interesting. Then it would seem to me that this is a quite fundamental difference between those two groups, which probably means 2 different...
