A big thank you to everyone who did anything, big or small, for the #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis / #ChronicFatigueSyndrome cause in 2023 (including simply sharing messages on social media).

Together we can make a difference.

I’ve been mentioning that I’d announce something.

Something connected to #PostViralSyndrome research.

Something kinda big.

#Canada’s pretty big.

Next year, I’ll be raising funds for research into PVSs by walking across Canada.

43 years ago, #TerryFox attempted to cross Canada to raise funds for cancer research. Nowadays, we know much about cancer. More survive it, including me.

PVSs are debilitating and as mysterious as cancer was in 1980.

Time to think big.

@evdas

it’s moments like this where i want to double down on helping #PostViralSyndrome research.

not for the sake of folks foolish enough to not protect themselves from a preventable disease. for the sake of everyone else.

May 5 press release:
"NIH study identifies features of #LongCOVID neurological symptoms: Findings offer insight into biological mechanisms, pointing to possible treatments"

https://www.nih.gov/news-events/news-releases/nih-study-identifies-features-long-covid-neurological-symptoms

This in-depth study was run by Avi Nath who also is leading the in-depth NIH ME/CFS study using a similar format

I have just donated to David Tuller.

I only get to read some of what he writes these days but it’s reassuring to know he's keeping a close eye on the output from those from the biopsychosocial viewpoint who have caused so many problems over the years
