    A community thermoregulation experiment

    ...is that sensitied microglia are prone to produce prostaglandins (which contribute to fever). The reason i like this theory is I've found paracetamol helpful in avoiding PEM and I believe it reduces microglia sensitisation. I would like to collect this data for you, I will post here when I...

    Paracetamol

    Yes, I've recently become aware about a developing line of thought that even at recommended doses it might be dangerous in the long run. It's a shame because I get a lot from it! But I have tried to limit my 24 hour intake since hearing about that.

    Gut Bacteria Protect Brain from Viruses

    ...might get screwy and cause the gut to maintain conditions that allow a dysbiotic microbiome to thrive. I have known for a ong time that paracetamol reduces PENE in me and I found recently that one of its effects is reducing microglial activation. I'm certainly open to the idea that...

    OMF-funded RBC Deformability Paper Published!

    Here's an interesting one. Paracetamol can make your red blood cells stretchy. I take paracetamol before I do any activity. I believe (n=1, data source highly subjective, but over many repetitions) it reduces my PEM. This could be why? IN-VITRO EFFECTS OF PARACETAMOL ON RHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES...

    I think I have food poisoning, probably from Salmonella. (Don't order the hearts)

    ...I completely lost control of my body temperature. I felt like I was freezing. I've probably never had a fever so intense. I took a lot of paracetamol. I was struggling to figure out what was causing my symptoms. Was it a curry I ate on Sunday? A new supplement? Gut trouble and fatigue are...

    Brain on Fire: Widespread Neuroinflammation Found in ME/CFS by Jarred Younger

    thanks, fixed link. Does anyone else find benefit from paracetamol against brain fog? I take it very often and it makes things notably better, I sometimes even take it as a preventative if I need to do exercise. This paper seems to show that paracetamol stops inflammation by stopping microglia...

    Any experience exercise (aerobic) vs lifting

    ...with compression stockings on. I always take whey protein aferward and rest too, so I can recover promptly and avoid PEM. (I also take paracetamol before any aerobic endeavour, but nobody else seems to get any benefit from that!) I'm worse at strength for sure. But I find certain muscle...

    Whey protein powder to address ME/CFS metabolic issues being identified by researchers - which one?

    ...blockers: I ramped my dose up to 50% more than the doc recommended (30mg per day) Not being in my house: possible mould avoidance. Extra paracetamol. I have a theory that taking panadol before doing activity limits inflammation and reduces after effects. I applied this theory diligently while...
