Normoxia and hypoxemia? Shouldn't it be hypoxia?

I've emailed my MP to ask him to attend. He's LibDem Ben Maguire.

I don't think much of these: "Here are all the symptoms tested, with a star next to those that had significant improvement at 26 weeks. The number is the baseline score for the active group. *4.8 Fatiguability 4.8 Aches and pains *4.0 Reduced sleep 3.4 Muscular tension *2.9...

Same here; like the vast majority of people here, I always do at least as much as I can do without getting PEM, but overactivity always, or nearly always, produces PEM. Perhaps people who don't are suffering from depression?

"With plenty of Christmas party food and mulled wine to fuel our discussions..." I remember enjoying these things too, even with ME, but now so many things are not suitable, including wine (can only manage one glass). Party food too has to be extremely limited.

Nancy Climax! Presumably they mean Nancy Klimas.

I've just checked and my CRP was normal last year. (<1)

Yes - I've listened to it now and wasn't terribly impressed - it didn't sound very informative and was a bit too optimistic!

I feel worst from about 1100 to 1500, after which I start to 'recover'. It's largely driven by my gut, I think. When it's emptied (through defecation) I feel better.

Another error: "physically activity".

As I drink a small amount every day, I can't say whether I feel worse, the same or better the next day.

I used to drink a lot, and carried on when I had ME, until I couldn't any more. I just have a small glass of wine each evening now. Can't drink beer any more because of gluten. I suppose I could buy gluten-free beer but I'm happy to stick to the (made from kit, so very cheap!) wine.
