    PINEAPPLE FUND INCREASES DONATION TO OMF to $5 MILLION

    Use the pineapplefund domain, which is pineapplefund.org, then add contact (at) in front of it. It is written like that because bots crawl the internet looking for email addresses to spam. If it was written properly poor Pine would get deluged with adverts for fake Raybans.

    Neuroinflammation/PET research out of Japan

    Google Translate can handle PDF documents, if someone can get their hands on the study. Sci-hub is a dead end on this one.

    Do the poll! Are the NIH/CDC going to use the right definition of PEM in all their future research? Deadline 24 January

    Sorry, Sasha. I was a bit slow on the uptake on this one as I haven't been on the forum for a while.

    I emailed the OMF to let them know about it and they said they had already applied. We're also ranked fairly close to the top on the relevant thread, but if you haven't already it may be worth giving that an upvote and leaving your story:

    You can see the donations made here for day 14: Bitcoin addresses are pseudonymous, so you cannot tell by looking at the blockchain whether or not those addresses belong to the OMF. Likely they actually belong to Bitpay anyway, who relays the corresponding amount to the amount to the OMF in USD.

    Exercise-induced changes in cerebrospinal fluid miRNAs in Gulf War Illness, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and sedentary control subjects, 2017, Baraniuk

    These must have been very mild patients. I have spanned a breadth of disease severity throughout the last 5 years, and at no point could I have sustained cycling at 70% of maximum age predicted heart rate for 25 minutes. Even at my best I would have been absolutely devastated by such a harsh...

    New Scientist: Blood cells in CFS are drained of energy

    I can't wait for the day when an article doesn't have to start out by saying that there is a debate between psychological and physiological explanations for the disease. When that day finally arrives we will know this whole sorry BPS mess is behind us.
