I'll also point out there's a lot of daylight between No PEM and Mild (50% impairment). This is a challenging population requiring special monitoring and education, because they feel lousy but are good enough at faking being well that we clinicians may assume there's no problem.

@guustweet You're losing what you thought your 20's should look like - but not your 20's. All any of us can do is live the life we have as best as we can. Unwell with ME/CFS in 1978 - am now 62.
Here it’s my 30s. My 20s were hard but nothing like the losses this decade. My friends advanced in careers, had kids, travel, and I’m here reading 19th century poets like contemporaries, trialing ice baths, tonics, silent hours, grieving, being wary of pathogens, grieving more.
sometimes the realisation that I will probably lose my whole 20s comes creeping in. the fact that this disease is doing that to whole generations: making them lose their 20s, 30s and even worse their childhood (!) when will we take this life wrecking disease serious? #LongCovid
Statistically there had to be at least one Jedi in the pre-Empire days who had ME/CFS.
"Overall, this evidence supports the notion that mitochondrial dysfunction is associated with ASD." I've hypothesized some relation between autism spectrum disorders & a susceptibility to MECFS, so this is interesting. 1/
Biomarkers of #mitochondrial dysfunction in #autism spectrum disorder: A systematic review and meta-analysis sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
@SockFoam @drclairetaylor 10. Then I explained that yes, PAIN is a key symptom of ME. I mean, for heavens sake... it's in the name! "Myalgic Encephalomyelitis" This is typical of my experience with HCPs, they have had literally NO TRAINING or EDUCATION about #ME oh, he did send me for blood tests..
10 days to go until #UniteToFight2024 Preparations are also in full swing. 🔥 Several hundred hours of labour have already been invested. We need the support of all helpers for the remaining days. Share the message where you can. We need a big last push 👍 Patients, carers,…
The AI painting of the day. This is dedicated to all the #MECFS patients who have been suffering from this disease in despair. Inspired by @CaroleBruce17 #ME #LongCovid
@MECFSNews Yup. Give-up+give-in is the answer. Then find those parts of your life, skills you dropped, plans you let slip etc +utilise those in the creation of your new+better self, because now you’re out of the workforce you can develop skills 10mins at a time.
"Lie down for people with ME/CFS! Make them visible. No matter where you are! They cannot draw attention to themselves because their illness keeps them trapped in their beds and their homes." 💪🪻
Lege Dich hin, für Menschen mit der Erkrankung ME/CFS! Mache sie sichtbar. Egal, wo Du gerade bist! Sie können nicht selbst auf sich aufmerksam machen, denn sie sind durch ihre Erkrankung in ihren Betten, in ihren Wohnungen gefangen. #LiegendDemo #MECFS #LiegendDemofürMECFS
@MECFSNews I absolutely agree that the best way to live with #mecfs is to deal with the reality of the illness and push for better support rather than chase useless expensive 'cures'. However, ppl have to come to this realisation in their own time. It took 2 1/2 years before I stopped…
Cystic Fibrosis life expectancy has doubled in 20 years. FDA treatments are now approved, & QOL is better. All because of one strategy - Venture Philanthropy. Here's what we can learn, this might just help Long Covid & ME/CFS research too. youtu.be/nc_Fobkozfc
If you've got chronic fatigue syndrome and/or POTS, might want to keep Nutcracker syndrome on your radar. Similar to May Thurner physiology/syndrome, there is a distinction between Nutcracker physiology and Nutcracker syndrome. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…
Good Representation of Blood Flow to the brain. Long Covid and ME/CFS patients have been found to have up to a 47% percent decrease in cerebral blood flow when upright on Trans Cranial Doppler Tests measuring flow in the Middle Cerebral Artery. #LongCovid #pwME #Pots
Note to everyone who wishes for a very long and healthy life: Aging is a progressive disorder that eventually results in progressive deterioration of all physiological functions necessary for survival! Try to slow it down until we figure out how to reverse it, soon!
Recap! ⏮️ In case you are a new follower or missed the news: Ed Yong (@edyong209), a science journalist and Pulitzer Prize winner, will speak to the worldwide audience at the #UniteToFight2024 opening ceremony.
Mitochondria aren’t just in skeletal muscle. Mitochondria are everywhere. ✨✨✨ (Including the cells composing the tissues within the body systems you think might be most responsible for #MECFS or #LongCovid pathophysiology. 😉) #mitochondriaNOThypochondria #TeachMETreatME
Our research work on impaired gut microbiome and microbial-derived preparations in ME/CFS and Long COVID just is out. It is now under review. preprints.org/manuscript/202…
@MECFSNews @TIME Thank you so much! Hopefully it will lead to more progress in the field
