There are some who cannot feed themselves or turn themselves over on bed.
I have every sympathy for those who have a more serious level of ME/CFS, and would do anything I can to help. And I certainly appreciate that yoga will be an impossibility for many.
But does that mean because some ME/CFS patients are not physically capable of doing yoga, all patients should avoid it?
There are many drugs and supplement treatments which cause bad side effects in some ME/CFS patients, so that they cannot take them; but these patients would never suggest that others must avoid these treatments.
I think it premature to be talking cures or mitigating tinctures or blue crystals or yoga or whatever, until that goal has unequivocally been realized.
Much of the discussion on this forum is about medications and remedies that can ameliorate ME/CFS symptoms. And in many cases these do significantly improve ME/CFS, and are definitely worth pursuing. And nobody denies this fact. So I am not sure where you get this idea that it is premature to discuss treatments.
If it had been a drug or supplement, like say Valcyte or oxymatrine, that had improved Dan's ME/CFS, then nobody would object. There are people on this forum that have got from a bedbound state to being fit enough to do some work, just by taking Valcyte. Nobody objects to such stories being posted on this forum.
For ME/CFS, Valcyte is politically correct; but yoga appears to be politically incorrect, at least for some patients.
And I certainly would think long and hard about promoting a feel good story that incorporates a "cure" (that might be harmful to some sick with this disease), before that singular objective has been reached.
For me, I would think long and hard about suppressing the truth, just for political purposes.
Here is another story of an ME/CFS patient getting a full recovery from yoga:

Hip, my point is we may be sending the wrong message to some of the wrong people, perhaps many with influence both professional and personal, with kumbaya tunes and nursery rhymes. This is a serious disease that is not treated seriously, and that needs to change.
Some people spontaneously achieve full remission from ME/CFS, as
this article details. Should that information be suppressed also, just for political purposes?
I am not unsympathetic to the political angle, and do see your political point. But for me personally, I like to see truth trumping politics. Yes I know that's not the way the rest of the world works, but there you go!
