There is directly shared confluence of causation, but I'll leave it there, to not descend into politics or media politics.

Thanks @Michiel Tack Absolutely fantastic

I'm fully aware of the Oxford criteria etc being a dangerous proxy for this, but I'm talking about more granularity in the epidemiology leading to better interrelated cohorts for research. Please shoot me down.

This distinction between PVFS and ME/CFS seems another underresearched area. I often wonder how much ME actually does exist on a wider sliding scale than we assume, a wider spectrum of health degradation, with 1) PVFS (and maybe other idiopathic fatigue triggers) at one end and 2) very severe...

From the original post, I meant... (Edited)

Definitely, super important Vs search engine indexing algorithms. Not sure if an archived version is possible though, because of the paywall(?). @anniekim, would it be worth removing the URL to The Times article from the original post? The images carry the text :)

These points, 10000%

I wanted to reference the below post here too - symptoms can be so different, but I think many people can relate to versions of this: the idea that some tasks are easier sometimes, and not at others, as if the dysfunction affects different parts of the brain at different times. I think cognitive...

People feel immune from the changes that they vote for, as if risks will never be relevent to them or their loved ones, however comfortable they feel now. Why too many people rarely see that before their own devastation, I'll never understand. I believe that "othering" and the cognitive...

At what kind of doses would it be dangerous? I know that menopausal women should take 3g from studies I've seen before

Comedy gold

The problem is that having a medical qualification apparently gives an exemption from needing to know the relevant science. Astronomically ignorant. It is no different from a plumber postulating that the laws of fluid dynamics are different known physical laws, because he doesn't know any...

Yes, and corrective modesty notwithstanding, many thanks anyway :) Apart from your specific effort, the overall effort is so foundational and one of the ways to achieve consequential policy trajectory 'nudges', in the long term behavioural sense that should compound over time. That's a very...

I was 1000% right about that possibility. My reading was insufficient.

Thought I'd flag this again here, not just because it's tangentially relevant. Although I've noticed it in my research, I've never seen it mentioned in ME circles (might be my insufficient reading):

Red blood cell deformability issues are also found in diabetes too BTW, albeit OMF findings probably need more replication I guess.

Profuse thanks

I've not been pacing well enough tha last few weeks. The lactate that accumulates includes the brain, so maybe that's the source of headaches...
