Thanks for this post - so true, it really made me laugh! :laugh::rofl:!! I love how the biological, psychological and social factors are just big...
@Binke4, sorry I only just saw this. Use of cimetidine for its immunomodulatory properties seems to be off-label. So its not listed on official...
@Binkie, I read to the end of the link you gave, but don't know what to make of it all. The cimetidine this person was taking was a much lower...
Interesting about the mouth ulcers. I'd never thought much about mine at all until I read this stuff. The more I read people's stories, the more...
You profile sounds very much like mine, @Hutan. My CD4 levels well exceed my CD8 ones, the ratio is abnormally high. I think the pattern you...
Yea, its Tagamet. I've been seeing a Clinical Immunologist at the hospital. He thinks I have a periodic fever syndrome, that is making my innate...
I posted here about ranitidine a while ago. It looked like that was helping me at first, but that benefit didn't pan out, I'm afraid. Since then,...

@Tal, just to put you in the picture, you'll be aware now at S4ME is a forum for discussion of the science around ME. So we don't just want to...
I see what you're saying, @arewenearlythereyet. But would you have got the same benefit from just having had pacing and delayed PEM explained to...
Haha, in my line of work, the dress code is "wear clothes, preferably clean ones". Actually, the clean part is optional for a lot of academics....
No, what they think is that after a "boom" we don't enjoy the sensation of having exerted ourselves too much - we confuse that very normal set of...
I think the boom and bust idea is way more nasty and insidious, @Keela Too. Its way more than a reasonable person trying to get things done when...
I think there is probably selection bias too, in the sense that if takes a lot of hard work to even get an ME/CFS diagnosis (took me three years,...
