Given that I currently have to rest a whole lot more than usual, it might be a "good" time to point towards OMF's current "Triple Giving November". I'll boosts the background and necessary information from last year after this post, but this is this year's link: https://www.omf.ngo/triple-giving-november-2025/

I can also point towards other organisations if anyone should be interested.

Either way, thank you for considering!

Triple Giving November: 3x the impact, 3x the hope - Open Medicine Foundation

Join OMF for Triple Giving November — every donation is tripled to accelerate research and bring hope to those with ME/CFS and Long COVID.

Open Medicine Foundation

The #OpenMedicineFoundation is a non-profit funding and conducting research towards understanding and curing #MECFS and #LongCOVID.

This research has been underfunded for decades and the upcoming US administration probably won't change that. Therefore, me and millions of other people rely on institutions like OMF.

Until December 3rd, all donations are matched two-fold (so x3 in total). Donations are tax-deductible in the US.

Thank you for considering. :)

I’ve so much love for the #wisdom and experience that Dave Olson shares on living with #MECFS and finding new adventures through #art in this #OpenMedicineFoundation post: https://www.omf.ngo/living-with-mecfs-japan/

Aside from being one of my favourite storytellers and humans, Dave started his journey with MECFS the same month as me (mine triggered by a car accident) and his story has long been helping me find my path.

I have signed up to #OpenMedicineFoundation‘s volunteer research-participant register, #StudyME , whereby scientists can locate potential contributors. The sign-up takes approximately five minutes.

I have #SevereME and the last page of text was the most difficult & time-consuming section for me to follow.

#PwME wondering what the #openmedicinefoundation ( #OMF ) is & does? #HealthRising has written an accessible primer.

“This year it awarded over $5.5 million to 14 projects. With awards ranging for everything from muscle biopsies to neuroinflammation, to precision medicine, to metabolomics, it’s the most diverse #MECFS research packet in existence.”

Celebrating the Open Medicine Foundation at 10 Years - Health Rising

Sometimes we take things for granted. Take the Open Medicine Foundation (OMF). It’s been around for ten years now. It’s like an old friend. Of course, we have the Open Medicine Foundation! In truth, though, the OMF never had to happen and when it did, it didn’t have to succeed […]

@bookwyrm @annedraya if you’re curious about #mecfs I recommend looking through #meaction & #openmedicinefoundation they have good info and resources.

The key feature is #PostExertionalMalaise #PEM an often delayed worsening of symptoms after any type of exertion. Many doctors still don’t know about #mecfs or are dismissive. Their knowledge base on #PEM is a good indication if they know what they’re dealing with. NO GRADED EXERCISE!
