every now & then #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis starts to trend, sadly this time also was not for good & / helpful news... so i want to take this opportunity to say `Graded Excercise Therapy` is HARMFUL ‼️ #pwme #mecfs #cfs #longcovid #chronicpain
„#MECFS has taken EVERYTHING from me. I spend probably 80-95% of the time laying down doing nothing. I am alone almost 24/7. The agony of not being able to do the things I miss more than anything, the grief, isolation and loneliness kill. …“ - @agy_lena 1/5
„I suffer of #MECFS. Since 4 years i have to live in a bathroom (Bell 0), in darkness, 100% bedridden, starving, thirsty, isolated, mostly paralyzed, feeling pain feeling like terminal cancer. There is no help, no support. …“ - @BathroomZombie 1/3
Niche #dysautonomia/#mecfs/ #longcovid q: Does anything help you stop crashing once you start? Asking for myself :) But generally curious. My crashes are *very* POTS-y--if I move around & it's a bit too warm/cold, etc. Fat (e.g, coconut manna) + salt seem to help a bit.
Hey Elon Musk—remember when you said “Kids are essentially immune”? ➡️Well I got an update for ya… "#COVID19 is a *leading* cause of death in children and young people ages 0-19 years in the United States". #CovidIsNotOver #BringBackMasks #COVIDIsAirborne medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

People who believe CBT/GET are effective treatments for ME/CFS have an extremely incoherent view of the situation. Taking a historical and global view, most patients with ME/CFS were never diagnosed. The time to diagnosis is typically also several years.
@ManvBrain This is incorrect. There are currently no demonstrable efficient interventions, but lots of management choices. Often a large part of working with people with Long Covid and ME involves trying to hold people back from overdoing things and pushing themselves
23 seconds From @me_and_more_ on #PACEtrial (copied from her Instagram @m.e_an_more) #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis #ChronicFatigueSyndrome #MEcfs #CFS #MyalgicE #PwME
@PhilM64 It’s the same email I got. I guess they’re just taking a narrow cohort of people, it also seems perhaps that if you’ve ever had depression they won’t be testing you🤷🏻♀️ which is incredibly frustrating given the depression was caused by being bedbound FROM the ME🤦🏻♀️ but there we go!
The DecodeME study is now open. You can take part now by visiting decodeme.org.uk/portal and signing up. You can read our full statement about today's launch here decodeme.org.uk/statement Thank you for your support. #pwme #decodeme #decodmestudy #MECFS
To #pwME and #LongCovid - is a crash the same as PEM, to you? Or are they different? (Please feel free to elaborate in comments).
#MillionsMissing 2022 is Sept 19th at the White House* or from your home! We demand bold, urgent governmental action for the millions of people living with myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), Long COVID, & other infection-associated, complex- chronic diseases. millionsmissing.meaction.net/protest2022/
SEPTEMBER WEBSITE SURVEY: Do you have: a diagnosis of #MECFS, a diagnosis of #LongCovid or have symptoms and are awaiting a diagnosis. Or are you a family member/carer for someone with either condition? Please vote here: meassociation.org.uk/mea-surveys/ #pwME #MyalgicE #PostCovid
What is it like to be ill and/or disabled and have a supportive family? It’s something I‘ve never had. Who else gets by without family support? How? #PwME #MECFS #LongCovid #ChronicIllness #DisabilityTwitter #NEISvoid
Should ME/CFS be classed as a disability? No, say New Zealand officials. ME/CFS patients & advocates in New Zealand say it is “extremely disappointing”. Read more about this news, & a discussion of when a chronic illness becomes a disability meres.uk/3U3q7Xe
@NIHDirector @NIMHDirector @NIH Most disheartening thing: @NIHDirector knows that NIH funding is vastly disproportionate to disease burden/human suffering. Knows the implications: people will opt to end their lives. But over the span of decades, no substantial funding reform at @NIH. youtu.be/f1sNPjSnUgw
