Merged thread This is an article about both ME and Long COVID: "Louise Parry Published 2 February 2026, 01:42 GMT Updated 4 hours ago Harbinder remembers when her children were "on track to have a bright future". Now all three have been diagnosed with myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME)...

You've misspelt Medicine at the beginning as 'Medecine'.

It sounds like scintillating scotoma, which commonly lasts 15 minutes. I've had it several times, although the last time it lasted one and a half days! I think that time was coronavirus-triggered. I've described scintillating scotoma several times here and on Phoenix Rising. Here is one...

I used to take 2.5 mg Nebivolol per day for high blood pressure, but was able to stop after the extraction of a rotten tooth normalised my blood pressure. I'm not sure what you mean by taking it in the container. I'm only moderately affected. I think it would help to know what you are taking...

Last year I had some teeth removed, one of which was infected. Soon afterwards, my blood pressure, which had been elevated for 20 years, normalised, and my polyuria, which I had had for a long time too, and for which I needed desmopressin to leave the house, also disappeared. I didn't have...

I sincerely hope that Alem's recovery continues. Many thanks to @dave30th for the info.

Possibly this? https://icd.who.int/browse/2025-01/mms/en#569175314 It's the International Classification of Diseases from the World Health Organization.

By the way, I no longer have polyuria: https://www.s4me.info/threads/diarrhoea-caused-by-too-much-desmopressin.36981/#post-521077

Research in non-humans on human disease is a waste of time, money and lives. For example see here: https://www.s4me.info/threads/testing-covid-vaccines-animals-are-used.19893/post-335996

I don't like sugar, or rather the effects of sugar (racing pulse), and I have Plamil sugar-free chocolate. It's delicious, although I wouldn't eat a lot because it contains xylitol instead of sugar, and that is laxative in large amounts.

I've switched to another TruthPaste type after my dentist recommended hydroxyapatite: Truthpaste Hydroxyapatite Toothpaste (Peppermint). It's on ebay here: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/257192887224

Welcome, @KNBaldwin!

Coincidentally (?) I have a fairly-persistent, but mild, pain down my left arm which I first noticed a month or two ago, and thought might have been due to some strenuous gardening involving lifting heavy rocks, but it's still there. I was fearing that it might be cancer related to a mole on my...

Yes - I've often felt better when I get an infection, although I rarely seem to get them now.

In the early days of my ME (1995-6) I suffered terrible nausea and vomiting, but then I was drinking a lot (alcohol) and also eating (when I could eat) probably ME-inappropriate foods, including gluten, which I later realised I couldn't tolerate. I was also trying various prescribed drugs, some...

Well, I've used it for over 50 years and haven't had anything like that. I've not heard of anyone else who has either. Maybe it's due to impurities in the solid form? (I rarely smoke it, but have it in food or just eat it directly.)

I've donated.

Yes, @Binkie4, I discussed my email and reply here: https://www.s4me.info/threads/united-kingdom-sussex-kent-me-cfs-society-news.1906/#post-33304
