Nope! Not a one. I have not found a single drug or supplement that has helped in any way regarding my ME/CFS.

Wasn't Penny a moderator for Dr Marshall's forum? Or was she also involved with CFSExperimental? When I was a member of the later group I believe it was Ken Lassesen who was the administrator.

I owned that book many years ago but have long since gotten rid of it.

I think it was Dr Bell who originally stated back in the 1990s that if someone didn't recover in the first five years then chances were that they wouldn't.
