Plus it's not going to be closed to only US docs forever. They're still figuring out out of outside US verification but they're telling me that's coming soon.

I have been pretty sparse on social media (outside the Curbsider's Patreon Discord). I'm sure my presence here will not be missed. Roon is interesting & I'm willing to help it grow for now. I just have too many social media apps & given my renewed push to be present for my family, just has to be.

Ok. Really need to consolidate my social media. Moving most of my professional socal media time over to Roon. Hope to see you there. roon.com/doctors/p/ch...

I know this is nearly a week late, but I want to thank the #AMPP (Association of Med-Peds Physicians) for inviting me to talk at their inaugural conference. I love talking about all things #DigitalScholarship #MedEd. They graciously allowed me to record my talk: youtu.be/C-OXgMytxMo?...

13/ 🧠 Dr. Bonilla’s takeaway: "Listening to patients is critical. Many therapies, like naltrexone and Abilify, were inspired by patient experiences and deserve further study."

120

Christopher Chiu, MD @cjchiu.bsky.social · 06/01/2025

12/ 🌍 The bigger picture: Post-viral syndromes highlight gaps in our understanding of infection-associated chronic conditions. Research and collaboration are vital for progress.

110

Christopher Chiu, MD @cjchiu.bsky.social · 06/01/2025

11/ ⚠️ The risks of unregulated treatments: Desperate patients often turn to unproven therapies. Dr. Bonilla emphasizes the need for safe, evidence-based care and patient-centered support.

110

Christopher Chiu, MD @cjchiu.bsky.social · 06/01/2025

10/ Challenges: Lack of biomarkers limits diagnosis. ME/CFS is based on clinical criteria like fatigue, post-exertional malaise, and orthostatic intolerance. Long COVID follows a similar diagnostic path.

9/ 📖 Advocacy is key: Patients need validation and support. Recognizing ME/CFS and Long COVID as real, disabling conditions is a vital first step toward effective care and research.

121

Christopher Chiu, MD @cjchiu.bsky.social · 06/01/2025

8/ 🧬 Dr. Bonilla notes intriguing links between ME/CFS, Long COVID, and genetic predispositions, including hypermobility syndromes (e.g., Ehlers-Danlos). Why some patients develop these conditions while others don't remains a puzzle.

120

Christopher Chiu, MD @cjchiu.bsky.social · 06/01/2025

7/ 📊 Early data shows ~50% of patients benefit from low-dose naltrexone, and ~70% report positive effects from Abilify. Controlled trials are urgently needed to confirm these findings.

110

Christopher Chiu, MD @cjchiu.bsky.social · 06/01/2025

6/ 💊 Treatment insights: - Low-dose naltrexone: Reduces inflammation and modulates the immune system. - Abilify (aripiprazole): May reduce brain inflammation and improve energy regulation. Start with very low doses (0.1-2 mg) and titrate carefully.

130

Christopher Chiu, MD @cjchiu.bsky.social · 06/01/2025

5/ ⛽ "Think of energy like a gas tank," says Dr. Bonilla. ME/CFS & Long COVID patients operate on "2 gallons" instead of 40. Pacing is critical to avoid crashes and manage daily life.

4/ 🧪 Pathophysiology: Persistent viral antigens, immune dysregulation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and inflammation drive symptoms. Research is ongoing to uncover biomarkers for diagnosis and treatment.

120

Christopher Chiu, MD @cjchiu.bsky.social · 06/01/2025

3/ 🔬 Dr. Bonilla highlights shared viral triggers: SARS-CoV-2, Epstein-Barr, and other infections can lead to post-viral syndromes. Long COVID isn’t new—similar patterns followed SARS (2002) and MERS (2012).

120

Christopher Chiu, MD @cjchiu.bsky.social · 06/01/2025

2/ 🩺 ME/CFS is a complex, often misunderstood condition. Its symptoms—fatigue, brain fog, unrefreshing sleep, orthostatic intolerance, and post-exertional malaise—overlap with Long COVID. 50% of Long COVID patients fit ME/CFS criteria.

110

Christopher Chiu, MD @cjchiu.bsky.social · 23/12/2024

13/15 Neuropsych testing isn't needed for every case! Often uses same tools we have access to. Don't create unnecessary barriers to care.

110

Christopher Chiu, MD @cjchiu.bsky.social · 23/12/2024

12/15 When to consider referral: - Complex presentations - Multiple comorbidities - Diagnostic uncertainty But remember: Most straightforward cases can be managed in primary care!

Christopher Chiu, MD @cjchiu.bsky.social · 23/12/2024

11/15 Pearl: Just because someone checks all the boxes doesn't mean they have ADHD. Clinical judgment is key - sometimes fewer symptoms but clear impairment is more telling!
