Suramin is under trial in South Africa

For Long Covid and with acknowledgment that Long Covid is similar to ME/CFS:

PaxMedica noted that LCS closely resembles another post-acute infection disorder called myalgic encephalomyelitis / chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). It intends to evaluate PAX-101 to treat LCS and ME/CFS.

Suramin is being trialed for autism spectrum disorder...the article states.

I wonder how we share similarities? This led me to wonder- what does autism "feel like"?

This article takes a stab at: describing it.

The description feels alot like how I now feel. Minus the "empathy" issue.

Curious if others feel this way.

sadly Suramin failed for three ME/CFS patients at therapeutic autism dosages do I have little hopes in this.
still glad to see a clinical trial finally

but they would know that, right? Are they just seeking to cash in on long haul funding?

Yeah but maybe there is a 10-20% subset that benefits so it's still good we get a trial with bigger cohort then 3.
Suramin is cheap
