    Swedish TV4 - news sections on ME

    Agree, @Kalliope, I fear "fake news" may be presented and thereby cause a harsh resistance to facts. I´d like to see @Obermann being interviewed.

    Swedish TV4 - news sections on ME

    Thanks @Kalliope. From the tweet " Läkarförbundets vård, villkor och lösningar"= Medical Association's care, terms and solutions. They must have worked hard during the weekend, as there haven´t been anything like this before for ME-patients. Though, some months ago I was recommended CBT and...

    World Gastroenterology Organisation Global Guidelines : Probiotics and prebiotics : Feb 2017

    Thanks @Arnie Pye for the links. Very interesting reading. As an example, on p.22 you can read the following about lactose malabsorbtion: " Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus improve lactose digestion and reduce symptoms related to lactose intolerance...

    News from Scandinavia

    Today there was an interview on TV, channel 4, with Prof. Jonas Bergqvist and the partner of a ME-patient. She got ME/CFS 4 days after a flue vaccination 8 years ago. The interview was very good, also included comments on the film Unrest, and will surely contribute to increased knowledge about...

    CFS part of the Finnish Lääkäripäivät 2018 conference

    Thanks @Andy . I just have to highlight this from the translation as it made me happy on behalf of our Finish friends: Objective: - to learn to recognize that chronic fatigue syndrome is a biological disease that can be cured but not cured for the time being - to find solutions to the CFS that...

    Short Synacthen Test

    Hi Erin, I have had this test some times and the result is always in range, measured by serum cortisol. I feel great, and almost normal afterwards which makes me think that I need that extra boost of ACTH. After overdoing things I get the usual PEM. Saliva cortisol test should be the best lab...

    Are there probiotics that PWME should avoid?

    Beside what´s already have been said in the thread, I think it´s also worth listening to Dr. Maureen Hanson at about 16:25 here. She talks about the lack of knowledge in this area, and says that probiotics even might be harmful.

    Media items about obesity

    "Researchers at Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg, Sweden, have found evidence for the existence of an internal body weight sensing system. This system operates like bathroom scales, registering body weight and thereby fat mass. More knowledge about the sensing mechanism could lead...

    Yes, indeed and I guess Norway and the other Northern countries will follow. We don´t have the LP-coaches here, but we have Dr. Mats Reimers and some other ME-deniers, who actively and openly dismiss us.

    News from Scandinavia

    I´m happy to tell that today the newspaper (well-reputed and conservative) that I mentioned above publishes, I think, the eighth or ninth article about ME/CFS. Most articles are behind a paywall, but some important articles are free. In one article the Minister of Health expresses frustration...

    Lectures from ME-conference in Sweden (in English). Includes prof. Hanson and prof. Bergquist

    Thanks Kalliope! It might be worth mentioning that the two lectures by Prof. Maureen Hanson are from two different seminars, in Stockholm and in Malmoe respectively. They are similar but for Hanson fans, like me, they might both be worth watching. The first part of the first lecture to 18:30...

    Yes, but it was some time ago. Good that you found the link! I had missed the latest article by that doctor. Sigh! The comments by "Sten" are very good and I think the development around the world in research about ME/CFS is the only way to silent M R´s voice. He is sharp and should be updated...

    Today on TV in Sweden about ME/CFS in "Efter 10 med Malou/ After 10 with Malou" at 10 am on channel 4 . It´s a talkshow but also serious. An ex-politician and advocate with ME/CFS and an active politician were interviewed. Quite good. I´m happy to see that there is a flow in media of...

    "There is an alteration in cortisol production, with a low level early in the morning and an higher than normal level as time passes by" That´s my experience as well. I have more energy when I go to bed, than when I wake up in the morning and for another couple of hours. Could those data be...

    Sorry, from here I have access to it. Is it OK to post the full article here ( I can´t recall how to post it on a "curtain")? I guess it should be of interest as Prof. Blomberg now is associated to the team at OMI. I hope that google translate made it good enough: A crisis commission is...
