„Ich bin Samuel, 21, leide an ME/CFS und in 12 Tagen sterbe ich“, schreibt Samuel. „Bitte helft mir, meine Geschichte zu verbreiten und Aufmerksamkeit für meine Krankheit und ihre Missstände zu generieren! Ich leide seit einer Corona Infektion an der schweren

Another highly accomplished researcher drawn into this space by the failure of medical progress. The economic burden of Long COVID, ME/CFS, and Lyme disease is immense. These illnesses have removed millions from the workforce, yet receive minimal government funding.

Post-COVID fatigue isn’t just subjective. Using advanced MRI, researchers found real changes in brain blood flow and oxygen metabolism in people with Post-COVID-19 Syndrome (PCS) after mild infection. ➡️ Key finding: PCS patients showed increased oxygen metabolism in the

A surprisingly hard thing for some (literally everyone in my personal life) to understand.

It will need a miracle so people living with ME can see the world like Dostoevsky could see it after his canceled execution.

Incredible work by ME/CFS Research Foundation. This demonstrates that meaningful ME/CFS research infrastructure can be built, and scaled with private funding. There is definitely still room to grow in Germany, and successes like these need to be replicated across Europe.

11) Instead, they saw that the microglia are dystrophic: they are fragmented. The cell body is not connected to the processes and the processes are also fragmented in itself.

14) The authors also looked at HLA which acts as a proxy for microglia activation and this showed no clear effect. They also found no evidence of abnormal T (CD3) or B (CD79a) cell presence in the central nervous system of ME/CFS patients.

15) Correa da Silva described the findings as follows: "So in the patients that donate their brains, possibly endstage patients, we do not see signs of classical neuro-inflammation, but we see dystrophic, rather senescent microglia."

Holy shit

Zagreus | Severe Long Covid & ME/CFS I'm sorry mate, it's saddening to see that you have worsened this much. If I could say one thing, it's this comment by Christoph Ströck that it's worth staying alive as long as possible. Maybe it will allow you to keep going for a little longer🙏 x.com/cstroeckw/stat…

Long COVID is so bad, celebrities are spending a small fortune to filter their blood, trying all sorts of experimental treatments to recover. Meanwhile, you're still acting like C19 is "just a cold", but let me ask you, when was the last time you spent 50k on "just a cold"?

I was never meant to be😢

I don't understand why engage in such wishful thinking. We can't even solve long covid or ME/CFS with the help of AI, but somehow we'll soon solve aging — a task that is at least one OOM more complex than these diseases — in half a decade?
