    News about Long Covid including its relationship to ME/CFS 2020 to 2021

    In that episode the solution was to find, and kill, the unkillable invisible monster. Through doing that understanding was reached. Not sure how transferable that solution would be.

    UK NICE 2021 ME/CFS Guideline, published 29th October - post-publication discussion

    You'd think so, but it's never been noticed before, by anyone who counts e.g. rational people.

    Covid-19 vaccination experiences

    Life equals isolation. Just the way it is, given people are what they are. Every now and then I go a little nuts so need to realign myself, which requires some form of social contact every few years. I wouldn't say it, isolation, is a health risk tho. I didn't get vaccinated because of the...

    Virtual Reality-Based Therapy Reduces the Disabling Impact of Fibromyalgia Syndrome in Women..., 2021, Cortés-Pérez et al

    In the UK standard policy is to promote them and give them ever increasing power and budgets. This (entrenched stupidity) is traditional and has worked fantastically in many fields in the past. :grumpy:

    United Kingdom: Newcastle-upon-tyne Hospital Trust

    Interesting variation on throwing someone under the bus. Instead they would prefer to stand together and hope that no one is so inclined as to use a fleet of buses. Instead of responsible qualified professionals they'd rather be a gang.

    BPS attempts at psychologizing Long Covid

    Bless em Once they come up with an idea, no matter how absurd, no matter that all the evidence contradicts it, they stick with it That's dogged determination that is. The same thing may well be responsible for all the fictional people driving into rivers, as satnav is always right, even when...

    Covid-19 vaccines and vaccinations

    Does that make any sense tho? Surely any reaction would be linked to something on the vaccine, so what type is likely to matter. I agree that possibly the amount may not make a difference, but can't see how what it was wouldn't.

    Self-soothing touch and being hugged reduce cortisol responses to stress... , 2021, Dreisoernera et al

    Hasn't this been known since we hauled ourselves out of the oceans a while ago? Surely it's basic mammalian physiology, known by every thing, no matter their education, experience or age.

    David Tuller interviews Adam Lowe about his experience as a lay member of the NICE ME/CFS guideline committee

    Which might imply a 'success' rate of 1 in 100? That is 1%, for the leading, gold standard, treatment a year ago.

    David Tuller interviews Adam Lowe about his experience as a lay member of the NICE ME/CFS guideline committee

    That is upsetting, now I will have to watch it, to find out how at most 12 'sessions' of GET could possibly cost over £20K. I assume that this could only be justified by having someone who is expensive to hire, like the Pope, to deliver the 'therapy', and not a junior grade 'therapist'...

    Is it too early to create a medical specialty for m.e.-like diseases?

    The problem would seem to be that post viral conditions were seen as anti society in the dawn of time I.e. that they led to non productive drones, worse than that as other productive drones needed to use resources to look after then. Obviously not a tenable position, for anyone, but especially...

    Not too early, far, far too late.

    Monitoring app - Visible - a platform "designed for any invisible illness that benefits from resting and pacing - including ME/CFS & Long Covid."

    The non information on the site suggests its product research to find out what people would want. Some of the requests would make such a device prohibively expensive for the market they are targeting. It looks like they are suggesting a complete system, wearable and app, with medical...

    Alleviative Effect of Alpha-Lipoic Acid on Cognitive Impairment in High-Fat Diet .. [diabetic rats], 2021, Chih Yuan Ko et al

    'Nice' to see research that backs up other research, done years ago, to back up known things - but this time with added rat brains. Yum. Is it just me or does 'research' tend to go round, and round, and round, in circles, never letting go of an idea, whether it's right, or wrong, same research...

    Covid-19 vaccination experiences

    Lack of confidence in the ability of organisations to organise an excess of drinks in a brewery is why I decided to take matters into my own hands, given the performance for the first 2 jabs here (at home - the nearest place to get jabs then was about a mile way, nowhere near a bus stop - policy...
