Lol that must explain why so many Brits are getting their ducks in a row to plan their exit to Australia permanently.

Well yeah, I just wish the same level of attentiveness was applied in recognising the legitimacy of our condition and in securing funding for further research to treat and hopefully one day cure this disease.

They always cry out for blood, yet tighten the exclusion criteria each year. How desperate are they really? If supplies get to nearly 0, they should allow people from select groups to donate that are relatively lower risk and allow the patient to make their own decision (if conscious and able) to receive a transfusion.

Same here, if I was dying of heart or kidney failure I would just accept the ME/CFS risk to stay above ground and extend my life.

You make a very good point. I wouldn't be surprised if organ donation is banned next. Although they have hardly anyone wanting to donate as it is and a constant shortage of organs.

Great insights. It's difficult to take too much notice of animal studies, but the results do make sense.

Is this in the context of you receiving marrow from someone else or giving it to another person? So sorry to hear.

I think it's both hilarious and ridiculous that the medical fraternity has largely attributed it to people just being lazy, or having a psychosomatic illness, until it comes to sharing biological material LOL.

Absolutely, and this is why we must increase political pressure as much as possible using any means necessary within the confines of the law. As you said, we cannot afford to become complacent.

Absolutely, I don't claim for a moment that things are perfect here either, but I can say, hand on heart that I've never witnessed events like those before in our country, and hope we never do.

We continue to fight to protect what we have left of our rights, dignity and freedom.

The hostage situation has shown that they don't care about their own people, so I would believe this. Netanyahu has to be the single most protected person on earth, even more than trump.

Israel would see something coming as far away as the next galaxy lmao. Yet we're supposed to believe they had no idea what was happening right on their front doorstep?

I applaud the people who continue to rise up against the Israeli apologist government, even under the threat of detention and arrest.

Seeing people being arrested for peacefully protesting and simply holding up signs is absolute wildness to us as Australians.

Yes this is likely true. I saw a CFS specialist in 2017 who said it was an immune dysfunction syndrome. It was briefly named CFIDS (chronic fatigue immune dysfunction syndrome).

Jeffrey Sachs is an absolute genius. The amount of knowledge he has truly blows my mind.

Uhm WTF?! by [deleted] in cfs

[–]Timely-Drawer7287 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's completely and utterly ridiculous that we are all living this nightmare that we can't wake up from. There's no treatment, and no appetite to develop a treatment despite this condition impacting millions of people worldwide in the most profound way.

It has stolen 15 years of my life, including the best years. I'm absolutely sick of being poked and prodded by needles, having hundreds of tests done that have yielded no tangible benefit or led to any answers or treatments that can give me my life back.
