Interesting, if they're not just adjusting their tests and results to get a desired outcome. I'd certainly wait for larger, better controlled...
I think the test would only be valid for treatments already personally tried for a suitable period. Judgements about untried treatments are...
Maybe non-covid patients who had a similarly restricted lifestyle would also show similar results. ME--and long-covid--really change what we do...
As for the $10 test, there have been 4 treatments that I'd definitely have paid $10 to be able to continue, and a sadly large number that I...
Humans aren't rational about such things. Religions and superstitions abound, despite no supporting evidence. Humans want to believe in magic...
I'm having trouble deciding what my honest response is, because I've been avoiding certain activities and durations of activities for so long that...
Unfortunately, yesterday I read a comment in another thread recommending ignoring any Chinese studies involving health and religion/tradition, due...
It would be pretty hard to convince normal (very busy) people to assign 2 hrs of their days to deep meditation ... just to improve their poo...
That makes me not interested in reading the study. For me, the first 4.5 mg dose provided complete blockage of that pain by the next morning (<12...
It's at least possible that people with less grey matter than average are more likely to develop long-covid, or at least report more severe...
Maybe there simply isn't a strong correlation, with ME and Covid, or ME and vaccines. Some people will report worsened ME from either of those,...
I had a cytokine assay done, and a few cytokines were elevated or mildly elevated. The immunologist's interpretation was "There's something going...
Another factor: easy global communication means that everyone has access to the latest papers. Science is about asking questions, and if you do a...
As for the study recently discussed, I'm at least slightly biased to accept it, simply because its findings about LDN match my experiences with...
The problem is that ME has individual responses. There are plenty of instances where a certain treatment worked well for one individual, made...
It works well for me.
That would certainly have shown positive results for my trial of LDN. I went from occasional trudges (limited by pain) to multi-hour daily hikes....
The problem might be that they realized that they didn't know enough about the brain's systems to model it in a worthwhile way. A few days ago I...
Right, neither can be clinically measured or even clearly defined. I don't put much weight on studies based on reported pain or fatigue, because...
I did plenty of experimenting with LDN. The effects on my pain were reliable. I forgot doses reasonably frequently, and it was the re-emerging...
Separate names with a comma.
