Much of Dr. Cook’s research uses functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), in conjunction with biological and behavioral outcomes, to understand central nervous system mechanisms of pain and fatigue in patients with fibromyalgia and ME/CFS and veterans with Gulf War illness. These studies combine exercise science and brain imaging methods to better understand these diseases. More recently, Dr. Cook’s research has begun to incorporate additional biological systems, such as the immune, autonomic and gut microbiome to better understand how distinct, yet related, physiological responses interact to maintain illness.

He explains the different forms of OI, including neurally mediated hypotension (NMH) and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) and other names used to describe these conditions. Dr. Rowe covers overlapping and co-existing conditions including joint hypermobility, Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (EDS), migraine, allergy, pelvic congestion syndrome. He reviews medications used to treat OI as well as postural and dietary approaches to comprehensive care.

Neuromuscular Strain in ME/CFS
Peter Rowe
Solve ME/CFS
2014
Peter Rowe, MD, describes some novel observations about restrictions in range of motion in the limbs and spine in those with ME/CFS. Many affected individuals have restricted movements and increased mechanical tension in nerves. Applying a further mechanical strain to the nervous system can provoke increased symptoms in some patients. These concepts are starting to help explain the pathogenesis of some symptoms and neurological abnormalities in the illness—not only how they might arise but also how we might treat them more effectively.

Defining CFS: Diagnostic Criteria and Case Definitions
Dr. Leonard A. Jason
Solve CFS/ME
2010
In this presentation, Dr. Leonard A. Jason of DePaul University explores current CFS and ME/CFS case definitions and whether they adequately identify patients who have this illness. He offers the argument that better case definitions might help identify more homogenous patient groups, which could facilitate the identification of biological markers for this illness. Dr. Jason has been engaged in several of the efforts to craft meaningful definitions for CFS. He will discuss the various CFS case definitions, how they impact research and care, and how the definitions might be improved to better serve researchers, clinicians, and patients.

Voices from the shadows
Natalie Boulton and Josh Biggs
2012
“Voices from the Shadows” shows the brave and sometimes heartrending stories of five ME patients and their carers, along with input from Dr Nigel Speight, Prof Leonard Jason and Prof Malcolm Hooper. It was filmed and edited between 2009 and 2011 by the brother and mother of an ME patient in the UK. The film shows the devastating consequences that occur when patients are disbelieved and the illness is misunderstood. Severe and lasting relapse occurs when patients are given inappropriate psychological or behavioural management: management that ignores the reality of this physical illness and the severe relapse or exacerbation of symptoms that can be caused by increased physical or mental activity, over exposure to stimuli and by further infections.

Forgotten Plague
Ryan Prior
2016
Ryan Prior’s life imploded October 22, 2006 when he was struck down by a disease that dozens of doctors were powerless to diagnose, let alone treat. Against great odds, he becomes a reporter and ventures to tell the story of his suffering and improbable recovery. He is shocked that millions globally remain sidelined by the same disease, many bedridden for decades.

Forgotten Plague is a journey into the hidden world of myalgic encephalomyelitis (chronic fatigue syndrome). It is a chilling tale of our medical system’s failures in addressing many chronic, complex diseases. Yet it is also a riveting story of science’s remarkable ability to transform medicine and improve human life itself.

Unrest
Jennifer Brea
2017

Jennifer Brea is an active Harvard PhD student about to marry the love of her life when suddenly her body starts failing her. Hoping to shed light on her strange symptoms, Jennifer grabs a camera and films the darkest moments unfolding before her eyes as she is derailed by M.E. (commonly known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome), a mysterious illness some still believe is “all in your head.”

In this story of love and loss, newlyweds Jennifer and Omar search for answers as they face unexpected obstacles with great heart. Often confined by her illness to the private space of her bed, Jen is moved to connect with others around the globe. Utilizing Skype and social media, she unlocks a forgotten community with intimate portraits of four other families suffering similarly. Jennifer Brea’s wonderfully honest portrayal asks us to rethink the stigma around an illness that affects millions of people. Unrest is a vulnerable and eloquent personal documentary that is sure to hit closer to home than many could imagine.

Unrest world-premiered January in the documentary competition at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival, where it won a Special Jury Prize for editing. It has since screened at SxSW, CPHOX, HotDocs, River Run (Audience Award for Best Documentary Feature), the Nashville Film Festival (Grand Jury Award for Best Documentary Feature), among Sheffield Doc/Fest (Illuminate Award). It also has a companion VR piece which premiered at Tribeca and won the Jury Award for best VR at Sheffield/DocFest.

Medical, Scientific, Political and Journalistic Pitfalls in the Study of Confusing Illnesses
Julie Rehmeyer
Santa Fe Institute
2014
When illnesses are confusing, without clear mechanisms or sharply-defined symptoms, they are often considered psychosomatic, and there's a consistent pattern of poor handling by federal agencies, researchers, doctors, and the media. AIDS, multiple sclerosis, chronic Lyme disease, and chronic fatigue syndrome are all cases of this. I'll describe this pattern, focusing on chronic fatigue syndrome in particular, along with my understanding of why it happens.
