You're welcome Denise, it's great to share good news once in a while.

Good news is very nice - I agree!
It was nice that he tied the Japanese and Stanford brain studies together in the same article.

He also tied in the disputes with IOM and P2C (Pathways to Corruption)- all in all, he is truly listening.

From Tuller's article:

Dr. Zeineh said reduced white matter in patients was consistent with the hypothesis that brain inflammation plays a role in the illness.

“If there is widespread inflammation going on, that could explain many of the symptoms,” he said.

Hence myalgic encephalomyelitis.

Surely?

I agree, Katie, he is listening. At the Stanford conference last spring, he talked about how difficult it is to get anything on this subject published, so I am particularly grateful at his continuing efforts on our behalf.

And glad to see his mention of participants in the IOM and P2C that are unqualified to be making recommendations.

For many patients, the primary symptom is not just fatigue but more specifically postexertional malaise, the total depletion of energy after even minimal amounts of activity. Sleep disorders, lapses in cognitive function, and muscle pain are also common. Some patients remain virtually bedbound for long periods.

And he got that in! To a blog on the NYT. Brilliant.

 

[Never Give Up]

Remember to comment, too. The psychogenic set is commenting. They sound very intelligent, educated, and authoritative.

 

[Snowdrop]

Agreed. It's important to support the article with good comments supported by what we do know to counteract the psychogenic nonsense.
And to support the author.

Another Thank You to David Tuller! I believe this is the second article in less than a year from him in support of the relevant non biased news regarding MECFS.

Hence myalgic encephalomyelitis.

Surely?

The one those researchers were thinking about was something like limbic encephalitis.
