In part II of a series of blogs on breathing and oxygen utilization, a long COVID exercise study suggests that dysfunctional breathing patterns may help explain the exercise intolerance found. A recent blog focused on a large CDC exercise study revealed that problems...
It’s coming – the granddaddy of them all – the IACFS/ME’s International ME/CFS Conference. The ME/CFS field may have struggled for decades to get funding, it may still be derided by some (witness the reason for a recent NIH grant application...
Most people’s idea of fun summer reading probably does not include exploring a person’s experience of chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). Mine apparently does – I blew through Michael Gallagher’s memoir of ME/CFS “Run Down: An Endurance...
A large CDC exercise study highlights breathing abnormalities in ME/CFS – but points a finger at the muscles. Part one of a series on breathing and oxygenation in chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) and long COVID focuses on a large study that prompted a...
A neuroglial hypothesis of ME/CFS from a pediatrician with ME/CFS and a leading glial cell researcher Yet another fascinating hypothesis has come our way. Produced by a German researcher/pediatrician/author with chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) in collaboration with...
With its more remarkable funding, the NIH should be leading the hunt to solve long COVID. Thus far, though, it’s in the rear of the pack. The NIH’s history with post-infectious diseases like chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) carries so much baggage, and is...
