    Deficient butyrate-producing capacity in the gut microbiome is associated with bacterial network disturbances and fatigue..., 2023, Guo,Lipkin et al

    My ME didn't start until I was put on a "skookum" dose of penicillin for a tooth infection. Three days later the ME hit in a split second and I've never been the same since. I've always believed that my ME was due to a screwed up gut biome.

    Earache / strange smell / tinnitus

    The nasal sprays can sometimes take three or four weeks to start working. You have to be consistent about using them everyday.

    Covid-19 vaccines and vaccinations

    Fourteen months later seems rather late for an adverse reaction to a vaccine.

    Covid-19 vaccines and vaccinations

    It's easy to say that if you were lucky enough not to have any adverse reaction(s) to the covid vaccines. I haven't been able to work for the past 16 months thanks to the vaccines. I'm tired of people denying that the vaccines are responsible. I've had adverse reactions with all three shots and...

    Rubio Sends Letter to Pfizer CEO on Alleged Gain-of-Function Research

    How do you know, though, that the 'small' tweak as you call it, can't become something much larger and deadlier than intended? It might not have been the intended result, but when you play around with nature, you don't ever know for sure what the end result might end up being - good or bad.

    Grim ME and recovery broken hip with partial replacement op

    I'm sorry to hear about your fall and broken hip. The only advice I can offer is make sure to move around as much as you are able under the circumstances. My mom didn't do that after her hip replacement and she ended up getting a blood clot and had to spend another two weeks in hospital. Wishing...

    Oral cancer/general anesthesia

    Sorry to hear your news, @SunnyK. I've had to be put under three times over the past 23 years and I've never had any problems with the anesthesia with the exception of feeling nauseous afterwards. Sending healing prayers your way for a speedy recovery and good news on the biopsy report.

    Oral cancer/general anesthesia

    Sometimes a surgeon doesn't have the answers to some of these questions until they get in there and start the surgery. And possibly it is better that patients don't have all the details until they need them. Too much information isn't always a good thing.

    SF-36 - a discussion

    Why is a questionnaire even necessary? I've had ME for 32 years now and in all the years that I've seen different doctors here in British Columbia, Canada, I've never once been asked to fill in a questionnaire.

    SF-36 - a discussion

    Personally I think these types of questionnaires are meaningless. Limiting questions to "the last 4 weeks" for someone who has had ME (or whatever health condition) for years or decades doesn't provide accurate information. They are a waste of time and don't give accurate meaningful information...

    Experience with LDN? low dose naltrexone

    We could be waiting forever if we wait for "well-designed clinical trials". I've had ME for 32 years now and I'm still waiting.

    Covid-19 vaccines and vaccinations

    That's nuts! If this was any other vaccine they would have pulled them from the market long ago because of the serious adverse reactions. According to John Campbell, when they reanalyzed the mRNA trials results from both Moderna and Pfizer, 1 in 800 people had serious adverse reactions.

    Pelvic transvaginal ultrasound - what's it like?

    Covid-19 vaccines and vaccinations

    From the sounds of it, there are a lot of problems with the vaccines that the pharmaceutical companies did not report. For example AstraZeneca knew from the trials that people were getting serious neurological problems, heart problems, and that some people were later being diagnosed with...

    Covid-19 vaccination experiences

    Hopefully the flu vaccine won't affect you. I had my flu shot 13 days ago and within four hours the reactions started. That's a first for me as I've never had a reaction to the flu shot before. Even with the covid vaccines I usually didn't notice anything until at least a week later. This time...

    As far as I know there has to be a small amount of THC present otherwise it has absolutely no medicinal properties.
