It's a pity that the research was delayed by decades (when ME/CFS was affecting mostly women) and only when covid came around that more researchers started looking at it.

The dr said thie research needs a connective approach. I wonder if the body's connective tissue, the mast cells being in the connective tissues and the mast cells moving in the blood and the brain blood barrier....since many ppl with genetic connective tissue disorders (Ehlers-Danlos, Hypermobility Spectrum, Marfans disorders) tend to get everything involved: POTS, ME/CFS, MCAS, Small fiber neuropathy, chronic pain, migraines, brain fog, chemical sensitivies, etc.

We need Ai to boost research, it's going too slow. Lives are not being lived.

It's obvious that neither of these people have cfs/ME, I currently use 7mls of naltrexone every 2 to 3 hrs to keep calcium ion channels opened, plus every other alternative modality and have a basic life, at least not bedbound. Very irritating to say Passion is healing, sorry but you have no idea how debilitating this illness is and I hope you never do.

Sorry but neither of you have any idea of what cfs/me is like, to say passion is healing is irritating, if it was that easy millions would be not missing. I currently use 7mls of naltrexone every 2 to 3 hours, to keep calcium ion channels opened, plus every other alternative treatment and have a basic life with minimal fatigue, pem, no pain, at least not bedbound. I am still not my old self, and I was very fit before ebv.

[@SuzannePowell-fb6lw]

Why are doctors so ignorant and shut down to fybromyalgia chronic fatigue, we in Australia with fybromyalgia are treated like its all in our head even though I body is clearly breaking down,I have been a hard very active worker all my life bit by bit I have become so unwell I couldent care if I died ..A major hospital in Sydney dident even no about fybromyalgia

I appreciate you want to advertise the research studies and get patients to study and those who want to partipate but it is extremely distracting when you have them in the middle of the discussion. With our short term memory issues...by the time you do the "ad for the center", we have already forgotten what you were talking about. Maybe doing the ads befote the discussion starts...it would help us keep focused.
