@Mithriel yes, I agree it is important to investigate why our immune system morphs over the years. What I find odd is when pwME rejoice when they catch a cold or flu and interpret this as an indication that their immune system is improving

Unfortunately this applies to women's heart disease as well.

@JemPD my wild guess is no, not all viruses can be inactivated by lower temps. I would be worried that freezing preserves the virus!

My immune system is dysfunctional and has changed over the last 30 years. I'm not sure whether catching flu or colds frequently or not at all is any indication of anything important with M.E. My CD4 and CD8 lymphocytes are all below normal.

I ordered an item from a Chinese seller on Etsy over a week ago, s/he is not allowed to leave home to send it out to me until March 1st. I will soak it in alcohol when I receive it.

Well, it appears now that the Princess Diamond cruise ship has become an incubator for the virus rather than a good place for quarantine. According to a Virologist at McGill, the ship is the second most contagious spot on the planet for coronavirus, after China, according to...

Comparison study of plasma CoQ10 levels in healthy subjects supplemented with Ubiquinol vs Ubiquinone. https://accp1.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/cpdd.73 I seem to recall dosage is based on body weight.

My levels were measured over 10 years ago, I was at 50% and was advised to supplement. I didn't notice much difference at 100mg, but I did feel an improvement at 300mg/day as far as being upright longer. I had to discontinue after 4 months because it was negatively affecting my...

Report says he took an Uber to the hospital.

I just read Mattie's post: "Dr. Gilete himself mentioned that CCI may very well come secondary to ME". Since when did Dr. Gilete become "expert" on M.E?

I take 600 mg EPA and 300 mg DHA. I think that was what the chemist/consultant recommended for me years ago based on my test results.

I don't know if my RBC are deformed, but I was very deficient in Omega 3 based on my elaborate RBC fatty test in 2000. All my other fatty acids were normal, except for one that was 'high'. Taking omega 3 regularly has improved my cognitive function. I took a fair amount Efamol back in...

Correction here. Alcohol disinfects but does not sterilize. Big difference. You need heat and pressure to sterilize, such as in an autoclave.

I feel sorry for those people stuck on the cruise ship that have been turned away by 5 countries. They're just stuck.

Are they still speculating that this coronavirus is an animal to human transmission? I've read recently that they suspect pangolins as the new culprits. This is completely different from flu virus.

Interesting that they present Type I, Type II and Type III poliovirus. I think this will also be the case for M.E.

The application for the Disability Tax Credit does not 'fit' our reality. I was receiving the DTC for over 25 years, but it appears that the CRA has made it more difficult to obtain in the last few years. https://globalnews.ca/news/6474047/canadians-disabilities-can-lose-tax-credit/

It's distraction therapy- diverting attention from your wallet.

My heart rate goes up when I have a virus or when my immune system is reacting to something.

It is fairly common in ME, but were they able to distinguish it from ME?
