    ME conference in Sweden 11-12th Oct 2023, The Hidden Disease

    @Ash I believe he is referring to Karen Gordon and the petition through Change set up by her Dad. Didn’t link petition as Nigel didn’t specifically name her in talk . That said it is worth noting his words about Karen as the NHS are still refusing to reply to the family let alone act and as he...

    ME conference in Sweden 11-12th Oct 2023, The Hidden Disease

    Just watched Nigel Speight’s talk. He gives case examples and his first example is now featured in an online petition. He implored listeners to circulate and sign. He gave no name but clear who he means. This young lady has been through too much. Please sign if not already even if just to...

    Neuroinflammation in post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC) as assessed by [11C]PBR28 PET correlates with vascular disease measures, 2023, VanElzakker

    Van Elzakker responded to a tweet that he has been recruiting pwME since before the pandemic for this same study design but no one volunteered! (I find that hard to comprehend) I note from his talk on the symposium he selected the 12 LC according to the MEICC which he just labelled ICC.

    Fundraising for ME/CFS research - opportunities, problems

    Next year is a big birthday for me so I’m thinking of an online birthday fundraiser. If I see another pwME do this I like to contribute because I know that these occasions can be very difficult and lonely. It’s a way of standing in solidarity at the loss of these normal life events. I know...

    Trial Report Home-based testing protocol to measure physiological responses to everyday activities in ME: a feasibility study, 2023, Clague-Baker et al

    I would like to see effects of having a meal and dealing with ingestion/digestion. Could have impact on severe/ very severe pwME and their nutritional support.

    Trial Report Home-based testing protocol to measure physiological responses to everyday activities in ME: a feasibility study, 2023, Clague-Baker et al

    The cognitive task (counting sevens) effect struck me. An extra thought was the descriptors of some of the moderate patients read as if they were tending more towards severe.
