    Orthostatic intolerance

    I do. It's what happened to me. I knew I could not stand and work at the grill anymore when I was 17 so I got an office job. I never said anything to my doctor. 15 years later another doctor put me through a tilt table test and I fainted. He said nothing to me about OI or its connection to CFS...

    Brain throwing a party before bed - not pleasant

    Yes. I take Tizanadine for sleep. Two 4mg pills at 8 PM and Two 4 mg pills when I awaken between 12-3 AM. It isn't perfect and sometimes I will still break through but overall I can sleep. I don't have all of your symptoms that you relate but those I quoted I do have.

    David Tuller - Trial By Error: This Year’s US Clinician Summit

    I think it is a better Fibro drug than for ME/CFS but, I have Fibro and it didn't work on that either.

    David Tuller - Trial By Error: This Year’s US Clinician Summit

    I think I used it for six months but it might have been nine. I can't remember how many times I renewed the Rx. It doesn't work and I am disappointed that this is the path they are pursuing.

    ME Association: Forward ME and Oxford Brookes University Announce Results of Patient Survey on CBT and GET in ME/CFS

    It won't have any influence. The only thing that can be said about it is it's on record.

    It did nothing for me. Money out the door.

    ME from stress ?

    I think ME/CFS, defined by SEID criteria, have occurred by stressful events. I think it is on the CDC's ME/CFS website. His metabolic research with Dr. Navieux also found stress events could result in a CFS diagnosis but I don't know which criteria he used. Even if he used Fukuda, the...

    Australia’s Health Minister Greg Hunt announces $3m for medical research

    ugh...it would be a shame if they got the money. Their biomarker research is ridiculous. In the US, no researchers are heralding their "discovery".

    USA: National Institutes of Health (NIH) intramural ME/CFS study

    But, I don't see anything about OI, Sleep disturbance, or cognitive dysfunction worsening after exertion, in MG especially 24-72 hours later. Just because you might have a symptom that gets worse after exertion in a disease does not mean that all your symptoms get worse especially days later...

    USA: National Institutes of Health (NIH) intramural ME/CFS study

    If PEM is not unique to ME or ME/CFS, it can still only worsen the symptoms-set unique to a disease. So, unless other diseases also have all the following: unrefreshing sleep, cognitive dysfunction, orthostatic intolerance and others listed under the SEID and CCC criteria, it would be pretty...

    Moderator note: this thread has been moved from one about AfME documents here https://www.s4me.info/threads/action-for-mes-documents-me-and-work-and-and-employers-guide-to-me.8421/ I wonder if MEpedia should have a Primer for employers @JaimeS @JenB They are pretty much a copy of one another...

    Thank you. I guess I am not really familiar with all of this. I will practice.

    Yes, just saw the capture. But won't let me capture a Lancet article. Tried searching it, too. Nothing.

    I can't capture this page either. It looks like the BBC article above was captured and I did not realize it although it should not give me an error, why not just let me save it again. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(06)68662-5/fulltext

    Those citations are very important. Thanks for doing them.

    I can't do anything on a regular basis either. I just can't be responsible for something like this. Oh, and I only did the pages, not their references one by one. Just to note here: I also did PEM and Pediatric ME/CFS and List of symptoms of ME CFS. Also Lady Gaga, all the Fibro pages, not just...
