In terms of symptoms, @MelbME, it may be useful to have some reference to time of day. I'm not sure quite what (can't think clearly at the...
I agree that would be absolutely ideal, but I don't think it's realistic until we have trained ME nurses. For what it's worth, I've been having...
I suspect it's probably just idiocy.
Welcome @Lena Kjempengren! I hope you enjoy it here. The TL;DR is that: 1) ...are very different things and it'd be useful for the ME...
