The book should be required reading for anyone who thinks exercise and positive thinking are the way out of ME - looking at you Paul Garner & BPS crew. Jamison Hill is a bodybuilder/fitness fanatic who just won't quit trying to overcome ME by ignoring his illness and exercising, until he is...

Aha - seems you can just buy it online directly from Inkshares, the publisher. Here's their reply: Inkshares <hello@inkshares.com> 10:53 AM (47 minutes ago) Hi Helen, She can order it directly from Inkshares here: https://www.inkshares.com/books/when-force-meets-fate-a-memoir-of-strength...

There's got to be a way. I've sent an email to Inkshares, the publisher to see what they suggest. In the meantime, does anyone else have a suggestion for Mango on how to access this ebook?

Hi Mango - I'm in Canada and preordered the e-book about a year ago when Jamison needed a certain number of orders to get it published. Downloaded in EPUB and read it on my laptop. Here's a list of places the various formats (e-book, audible & hard copy) are available: US: Amazon, Apple...

Got my e-book last week & read it. Best description of the experience of ME that I've read.

Like ScottTriGuy I also asked that the webinar not be posted or alternately be posted with the Q & A edited out. In addition I requested that the webinar organizers, Canadian Institute of Health Research who BTW support Alain Moreau's work, send an email to webinar participants clarifying their...

Well, my recollection is she said that she thought PACE was good (this may not have been the word she used but if not it's close) research. Next she made a comment about a prominent physician with long-COVID who initially was hesitant to exercise and wasn't recovering but then began to exercise...

I share this concern but continue to donate as, after going around in mental circles, this still seems like the best place for me to contribute financially. Other suggestions more than welcome? I am in Canada. Edited to add - One of my considerations is that OMF supports researchers in Sweden...

Was a webinar in a series put on by the Canadian Institute of Health Research this morning. Will post when it's up. Confusing as this is the organization that is supportive of Dr Alain Moreau's work. ScottTriGuy can you add to this?

Split from Possibility of ME or PVFS after COVID-19, Long Covid Just made the mistake of listening to part of "Trisha Greenhalgh Webinar on Long-COVID". Was hosted by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research in a series on Long-Covid, ME & more. Blood still boiling. Basically said PACE was...

Just want to say I very much appreciate this thread as I was first excited about the Solve ME announcement and then the doubt set in but hadn't seen the above discussion. Will be watching for developments. Grateful that the long-haulers will be pushing on this. Agree with rvallee that we'll all...

I'm totally sold on the no-poo hair care method! Was finding washing my hair too tiring on my arms so kept putting it off longer and longer between washes. Then last January - that's almost a year ago - I stopped washing it altogether. I rinse it by lying down in the bath (usually with a tiny...

Good work rvallee!

Sometimes I wish there was a "Really like" button.

Investigative article in Vox on Long Covid experiences of long haulers and doctors as well as some research. Bit about relationship to ME below in quote. Quoted researcher Madeline Lancaster is a biologist and the group leader at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge, UK...

Just listened. Interesting, good update on his current research and his thoughts on other ME developments, and calm easy to listen to this kind, knowledgable and dedicated researcher.

Yes- I believe they tested at least some of the patients in their homes. The nurse working on the study was willing to come from Montreal to a home in Ottawa, about a two hours drive, to test our family but we didn't end up doing it due to the logistical problems of getting family members from...

Maureen Hanson spoke first and stressed the dangers and risk of permanent damage from exercise on people with ME. Then in Ian Lipkin's presentation he said he hadn't recovered from COVID-19 but that exercising with a personal trainer had helped him a lot. This was weird as given it was an ME &...
