I'm not convinced heart rate tells us anything about ME/CFS. When I was moderate I could shower every day without issues and my heart rate would be between 110-120 for up to 15 mins.
But if I took a beta blocker and walked 100m with a heart rate of 85, I still got PEM the next day.

TLDR: rehab people were overrepresented during the kick off meeting. The perspective of severe patients was not considered.
It does sound like your condition fluctuates. I was able to do the exact same thing every day for a year when I was moderate. No week was better or worse than the next.

I wonder if he has a personal connection?
DXM gets rid of my PEM headache entirely and when I overexert myself it blocks symptoms until it has been metabolised. Unfortunately, it does not block PEM for me and it does not help with muscle pain and weakness during PEM.
I’m curious about how this theory explains the gradual baseline decline some people report after repeated PEM episodes. I think you posted about the mtDNA theory in other threads that I can't find at the moment.
