For "balance" they should include a patient that got worse, but of course that is not something that is not as easy a story tell publicly (although many have done so). I get so tired of this. I wonder how the project at NTNU goes, will they be able to rehash it into something Forskningsrådet...

NRK has a lightning process recovery story today, nothing about potential harms, only that there is not enough evidence behind the method for it to be used systematically in clinical practice :banghead: Foreldrene fryktet ME-syke Emilie skulle dø – nå skal hun til OL Her parents feared ME-sick...

I take an omega-3 supplement that contain CoQ-10 in the morning, and some of my symptoms, like poor sleep, are stronger when I forget to take it. Not sure about if I believe this specific supplement need to be taken at a given time. The fatty acids at least can have a high concentration in the...

Wow, they actually collected some dietary information! There have been talk about two types of PD, where one has pre-symptomatic GI changes which could be the cause of the PD symptoms.

Iodine deficiency can also influence energy levels, and is not easily tested for. A diet interview is the easiest way to screen for it (the other is collecring all urine output for 24h). With an illness that can influence dietary habit for whatever reason, a dietary interview, together with...

Now now, don't you know how bad it is to tell patients there are no treatments?

Now you are stealing HOPE from patients. Or something... I don't quite grasp their logic.

Espolin Johnson, one of the "24 progessionals" who wrote in Aftenposten in defense of the BPS view when faced with the new guideline, and who has called ME a "fashionable illness" and said pwME can become healthy by "caring less", "changing partners" and "moving" has written a short opinion...
