I see it now! Sorry about that. I've put an edit in my original post so hopefully people will see that. If I hadn't been so brainfogged I would...
The results of this one-question survey could be used similarly to how Action for ME’s 2011 survey was used by White et al in their 2017 response...
I found the tables and figures in this paper helpful - they show what happens on tilt testing with various types of orthostatic intolerance...
Overall, I'm glad that researchers are starting to look at severe and very severe ME. There's something a bit bull-in-a-china-shop about these...
Hi Jonathan, So sorry to hear that your daughter’s health has deteriorated and that you’re facing into a rough summer (and beyond). It’s great...
Yes, exactly! I think these kinds of discussions are helpful - I definitely sharpened up on what Goudsmit and Jason did and did not say in...
I think there are two different things getting conflated here – one is resting excessively and thus doing too little (as you might if following...
@Invisible Woman and @Nellie Pledge have explained the problem very well. @Invisible Woman needed to work through feelings of boredom to get the...

About the progressive/course of illness question, Stoothoff et al’s 2017 paper (Leonard Jason’s team) is helpful:...
Unhelpful illness beliefs perhaps?
