    Should we be cooling our brains down?

    I'm the opposite, i find cold very energy draining. But being too hot is also very energy draining. I am not criticizing his intentions, i am just saying that there could be an alternate explanation which should be investigated because high temperature could have many possible causes. If we...

    Should we be cooling our brains down?

    True enough, its not something i'm personally anxious to experiment with I submitted a question that was not answered, how do we know the lactate is not simply coming from activity that goes anaerobic because of pyruvate dehydrogenase inhibition. If understand what he was saying it was that...

    Should we be cooling our brains down?

    I don't say controlled trials are a bad idea (though i still am skeptical this would improve cognitive dysfunction), what i am saying is uncontrolled experimenting with something we can't measure and could cause harm to the brain is a risky thing to do. Cooling the body obviously has...

    Should we be cooling our brains down?

    But cooling your brain internally on purpose has probably not been on your list before. I also want the answer today but how will you control how much your cooling your brain? Will below an unknown temperature cause brain damage? When you cool something the temperature gradient goes from the...

    Should we be cooling our brains down?

    I think its a bad idea to try. When you throw a monkey wrench into things you don't understand who knows what will happen.

    CFS Research Center at Stanford Second Annual Community Symposium Sept. 29-2018

    I'm finding it very interesting, a few ideas come to mind and some revisiting of previous thoughts. Its too much information though, i had to zone out during Maureen Hanson's talk, but will view it on youtube in the future

    I have 86 slides from the first part (the ones that would upload are included), not sure how to upload more, keeps complaining file size is too large I won't be able to capture slides the rest of the day but i started and it kept going

    NYT: Congratulations. Your Study Went Nowhere. (9/24/2018)

    I'm unable to read the article but someone once said "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." If these were published then others could avoid repeating things that won't work saving time and money and resources.

    Proprioception Dexterity Balance

    What country are you in? I've been dealing with the medical system almost all my life, doctors are not interested in learning anything beyond medical school. I seriously wonder how many avoid continuing medical education (unless mandated) Having been to more doctors then i can count when i...

    Proprioception Dexterity Balance

    Once there is a container they look for symptoms in it and ignore everything else and even its origins and implications. Thats why medical lies put into practice is so hard to combat, confirmation bias takes over and they believe and never question the lies. That plus they don't want to admit...

    Proprioception Dexterity Balance

    Thanks :) Yeah, i've had to try and idiot proof my life, much harder to do these days with severe cognitive dysfunctions. I have had ME long enough to compensate, so i may feel i am floating but i could keep from falling most of the time I'd be bouncing off walls if i tried eyes closed. I...

    Proprioception Dexterity Balance

    I know what this is like, was like this for many years, its eased off a bit in recent years but i am also better at working with it. One interesting side effect which may or may not be related, i am amazing at timing things, i can take pictures of times when people are playing toss with the ball...

    Professors crowdsourcing scrutiny of research papers and retractions on Twitter.

    Is anyone willing to contact the author with a plug for PACE as a next article candidate? A link to Tuller's blog series may also be good reference material...

    Presentation at EUROMENE - London, UK

    I don't know if what you mean by common ground is between your theory and her research but from what i know of her she is a huge asset to ME/CFS

    Presentation at EUROMENE - London, UK

    I hope we get faster results as well but real research often takes time and we are decades behind where we should be. Unfortunately we can't say ok we are behind so we will only do quick research because we have no idea if the quick stuff will lead to a treatment or not. It may take long term...
