This ridiculous BBC Breakfast BBC News (UK) There are so many important overnight news stories deaths in Ukraine, Gaza, missing children in floods in Texas to name but a few. Tragic though it is you should not have the death of 2 footballers as your top story and devote so much time

This is a slightly hard abstract to grasp as it’s very biochemical, but I think in lay terms: They’ve found a problem with breakdown of cell membranes in pwME, that is related to estrogen, and is worse in more severe patients. Importantly, it could be treatable with drugs.

June 30 + 8… still no Delivery Plan on ME. Very grateful to Helen Morgan MP 🔶 LibDem Health Spokesperson for writing to Wes Streeting asking that the Plan be published very shortly. We want people with ME, and their carers, to know that the Liberal Democrats are on their side.

🔬Simplified breakdown of the Decode ME results: DecodeME identifies 8 gene regions linking immune response, mitochondrial energy control, and brain-cell signalling to ME/CFS Genomic evidence the disease is biological. Let’s breakdown everything in depth 🧵

✍️ Today I've joined Action for ME in writing to Wes Streeting on the chronic underfunding of ME/CFS research. Despite the prevalence of these conditions, they are still poorly understood and lack effective treatment.

When humans look at something we find beautiful, incl. photos, our brains release 2 feel good neurotransmitters: dopamine, which lifts mood & if we really connect with what we're looking at our brains also release oxytocin, the 'love hormone' because art for our ancestors *was*

Researchers propose that In ME/CFS and long COVID, autoimmunity may occur in which the immune system attacks the body's own tissues as well as the virus due to molecular mimicry. Read more: tinyurl.com/yck56878

New research on ME/CFS finds unusual cell signals after exercise. Tiny packages released by cells (extracellular vesicles) show problems with energy production, an overactive immune system, and cell stress. Let’s break it down in simple terms.

Sainsbury's⁩ Why have you made these water bottles impossible to open! Cap is so difficult that the bottle collapses before it opens. Impossible for me and impossible for 93 yr old Mum who relies on these for hydration
