In the beginning we feel disbelief and reject illness (we are NOT sick, it cant be this bad)...at some point we enter acceptance (we ARE sick, we realize life has changed)...this triggers a period of grief and mourning (giving in, giving up, adapting to the new reality). 1/3

Many pathogens set off a chain of events that lead to the destruction of connective tissue. It may be why many people with #MECFS #LongCovid start having cervical cranial instability (CCI) issues even when they didn't before. 1/2

This is why rapid scaling for treatment for #MECFS #Longcovid is so important. Even if the treatments are just 'baseline increases' or small shifts. Early high costs need to be brought down as quickly as possible. Treatment without accessibility is not going to cut it.

One of my favorite made-up terms is 'robbinhooding'. The idea is that people who 'have' want to help people who 'dont have' but its hard to figure out how to actually help. 1/2

Even if you are getting enough Magnesium from your diet and from oral supplements you might not be absorbing it properly. After a number of low Mg blood tests (and constant supplementation) I have switch to transdermal Mg.

"Mycotoxins have been shown to damage the blood-brain barrier, allowing other substances to cross into the central nervous system. One mycotoxin crossed the BBB over 300% faster than the study controls and reached the permeability of morphine, a BBB-permeable drug. 1/2

I am not a #Lyme expert but I am intrigued about the overlap use of methylene blue (MB) in #Lyme and its potential usefulness in #MECFS #LongCovid - for mitochondrial dysfunction. I personally use MB from @troscriptions. #NotanAD drtoddmaderis.com/methylene-bl...

Getting mast cells under control is a key part of stabilizing the autonomic nervous system (ANS). MCAS treatment is not just about 'allergy' it affects sleep, heart and cardiovascular system, BBB and brain, anxiety and stress, brain inflammation etc. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

I have been in the 'recovery' stage following @remissionbiome.bsky.social since March. Due to a number of major 'blocks' such as mold and toxoplasmosis I have had to do additional treatments. I am on the upswing finally after moving house 3 months ago and starting detox. 1/2

Your gut microbiome is a key part of your immune system. In the @remissionbiome.bsky.social protocol the first step to modulating systems-wide dysfunction is 'digestive system health'. Gut-brain axis health lays the foundation for the 'architecture of recovery'. www.frontiersin.org/articles/10....

Major review of CoQ10 and #fibromyalgia #MECFS #LongCovid "RCTs have reported significant symptomatic benefit in the treatment of these disorders, particularly for FM (FM = #fibromyalgia)". Data for #MECFS #LongCovid also positive but more studies needed to confirm.

We are also seeing this in #LongCovid patients. Autoantibodies to MBP and other markers of neurodegeneration are common in our patient population unfortunately. @CyrexLabs Alzheimers link panel is like a 'gut-brain axis' panel and their 7x Neurological panel is also worth a look.

Autoantibodies against myelin basic protein (MBP) are showing up in our results as well and I have been taking Clemastine when I can get it. ProdromeNeuro targets myelin as well. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

This is a incredibly key lecture to watch. #MECFS #LongCovid The @remissionbiome.bsky.social protocol would not exist (at least in the form it is in) if it were not for the paradigm-shifting ideas of Robert Naviaux. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QG5e...

Its like our bodies are operating on only a tiny fraction of the energy of 'healthy peeps' and that we run out of energy faster and cant re-fill the tank as fast. But why? How #LongCovid and #MECFS exhaust the body. www.healthrising.org/blog/2022/02...

When I was a PhD grad student I did field work in Jamaica (where I ended up getting Dengue and started the #MECFS rollercoaster). I was working on tropical rock pools (rain filled depressions in the limestone) which dried out constantly yet bounced back with life super fast. 🧵 1/6

Did you know? That I (DrT) went to law school? I was one of the youngest people to start law school in Canada in my year (1992). I was 20. I didnt get my law degree as I fell in love with scuba diving and went off to become a marine biologist and diving instructor.
