We've known that post-exertional malaise is correlated with reduction in cerebral blood flow (CBF) for many years. We think cerebral hypo-perfusion may account for some of the signs and symptoms we observe. However, measuring CBF takes expensive equipment. 1/n

🔬Most people think mast cells are only involved in allergies or rare conditions like MCAS or mastocytosis. That’s incorrect. Research shows mast cells are active in many diseases, including neurodegenerative, autoimmune, infectious, heart, gut, and mental health conditions🧵

1) 🇨🇦 In a new ME/CFS study, the research team of Alain Moreau reports that haptoglobin (Hp) might be a potential biomarker of PEM severity and cognitive impairment. Its main function is to bind free hemoglobin that is released after the breakdown of red blood cells.

Mitochondria only come from your mother, so I want to know what went wrong My great grandmother born 1901, Durham miner's daughter, had 11 children and worked really hard, was often the sole earner, lived to 92 (when I was a teenager).

1) In a new preview video, Dr. Yarred Younger from the University of Alabama says he found evidence that ME/CFS patients have more microglia cell activation in their brains than healthy controls. His theory is that chronic brain inflammation is driving symptoms in ME/CFS.

@alanbarnard1 @H_S_E Totally totally untrue that the UK didn't have enough FFP3. There were massive stockpiles held back during the early stages of the pandemic, because they were *saving them for a flu pandemic*. I know it sounds ridiculous, but it's true. Go look it up, @PrivateEyeNews

Here's another Covid scandal that is just starting to emerge into the public domain from today's Private Eye. I think this will turn into a big one. (And it's not a good look for the @H_S_E either.)

This quote is from Sarah Albon, CEO of the Health and Safety Executive, on 26 July 2022: “With really, really good communications, you might be able to make people feel safe, even if they’re not.” This is not the remit of the HSE. Can I ask that you bookmark this tweet, please.

Sometimes ME research feels like an endless cycle of saying “NOW finally we have proof to show this is ‘real’” over and over—all the while, people are still sick and needing help.

What if your body couldn’t bear light, sound, movement — or even touch? Today, #SevereMEDay, we ask you to imagine living that way not just for a day… but for years. For people living with Very Severe ME, this isn’t a metaphor — it’s reality. 🧵

9) These 8 DNA variants occur in 13%-60% of the general population. So it’s not that these determine if you have ME/CFS or not! Instead, they should be seen as clues or pointers to what's really going wrong.

70 years ago an outbreak occurred at the Royal Free hospital. They named it: Myalgic (= muscle pain) Encephalomyelitis (= brain and spinal cord inflammation) ME for short or #MECFS Did they get it right? Two recent results suggest they did 🧵

Vlad Vexler@VladVexler·
The #DecodeME study is terrific - a milestone in biomedical science. But headlines like “ME is real” are not good journalism. ME was already scientifically established by the mid-1990s. And clinical evidence has supported its reality since the 1950s. So why do we get these headlines? Because in UK health journalism, “getting the facts” often means repeating what a GP mate told you over lunch, rather than reading the research and checking the facts. These headlines aren’t just lazy. They echo the distortions that stalled ME research in the first place. Instead, journalists need to dig into the history of ME denial. A history of inappropriate psychologisation of ME to service not patients but psychiatry - a profession in existential crisis. You wouldn’t write “human-influenced climate change is real” in 2025. Don’t do it with ME. #pwME

I can completely understand that people will put credibility into different types of scientific evidence, but in response to many headlines and news reports I’m reading, I have to say we’ve had objective of evidence of PEM—the hallmark of myalgic encephalomyelitis—for 25 years.
