    Central sensitization: a matter of concern

    I was assaulted by a similar cacophony last time I was in hospital, when I was in an isolation room - I think there were 4 different beeps going off at irregular intervals, which eventually drove me to the window, wondering whether there was a way to jump out and end it all! (I was in for a...

    MEA Research Update: Metabolomics and ME/CFS – Dr Morten and the Oxford research centre 13th August 2018

    Doesn't this conflict with what Ron Davis found? I can't think where it is - I think it's on this site somewhere, and also on Phoenix Rising - he found a lot of differences.

    How Might Benzodiapines (Ativan, Clonazapem) help with ME/CFS?

    I note that everyone except @Cinders66 here appears to be male (sorry - not sure about @Sidney), and wonder whether this is a factor in the effectiveness of the drugs. Males and females have very different chemical make-ups according to some researcher (can't remember who). It's one thing that...

    Scientist joins Sussex ME Society's advisory team

    I didn't notice anything particularly controversial in CS's talk, but the link https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/chronic-fatigue-syndrome-cfs/ (Learn more about CFS) was definitely dodgy.

    Hair loss and changes to fingernails

    I don't know what happened when I was trying to upload a photo! I'll try again. It's a photo of my head/hair in 2016, after the hair fell out. It grew back again.

    Hair loss and changes to fingernails

    I had quite a lot of hair coming out a few years ago, but it seems to have grown back, and also greying seems to have slowed considerably (or perhaps it's just growing more slowly?). I henna my hair so it's not obvious. I've had ME for over 20 years and am 65. I'd urge caution over thyroid...

    Coping with hot weather

    I know there is mesh available - I'm just not sure of my current ability to put it up. I've even got one saved in my ebay account, but that's one that has to be cut to size. I could afford something better now, but my cognitive ability is generally not very good at the moment.

    Coping with hot weather

    I can't open downstairs windows due to insects of all types swarming in until the house is full of them. I simply can't catch them all, so they usually end up dying between the ceiling-curtains and the glass ceiling in the conservatory, after exhausting me trying to catch them. (I live next to...
