I realise I'm just a freak, but living in a multicultural city is the best thing of all time, it's just the best possible human experience and i can not understand why anyone on earth would be like "weve got to destroy this"

TL;DR The genes found to be associated with #MECFS in the DecodeME study are associated with: ✨autoimmune conditions ✨innate immune response ✨response to viral infection ✨mitochondrial disorders ✨neurological disease ✨inborn errors of metabolism ✨pain/nocioception ✨cellular integrity/autophagy✨

Thank you to some amazing colleagues who took time and precious energy to craft this rapid response to the recent @bmj_latest piece. When people try to hijack #LongCOVID, #MECFS and other complex illness as psychosomatic it is important we strike back: www.bmj.com/content/389/... 1/

Patients with severe ME/CFS need hope in the form of evidence-based interventions, not opinions.

Just because 99/100 scientists agree that it's bad to open a portal to the hell dimension doesn't mean we should immediately discount the opposing views of the scientist employed by Open A Portal To The Hell Dimension Inc.

To everyone in the LC/ME/CFS community in the UK, I want you to know that I realise how devastating today's Green Paper on welfare will have been for you. And I swear I will keep fighting for you, every single day.

Just in from mammoth interview session to two bits of news. One that a DV perp got locked up because of something I did and that a vulnerable constituent had a a massive wrongful debt written off after our intervention. This is why I came to politics, this is why I'll just keep cracking on.

Fascinated by people who can't understand the basic concept of an ongoing pandemic. I, like millions of other extremely high risk Americans around you, are extremely extremely high risk and medically vulnerable. MASK UP and stop drinking up right wing covid denialism.

Feels like a good time for a thread about all things exercise for people living with infection (and exposure)-associated complex chronic illnesses (IACCs) such as #MECFS, #LongCOVID and chronic #Lyme /tick- and vector-borne illness. Let’s start with a trip down memory lane. 1/

“The silent story for most of us is that we “decided to get better” but couldn’t; started doing a little more each day but had a relapse; tried yet another treatment and found it wanting; and then, having lost everything, built the best life we could from the ruins.”
