👉Before accepting a chronic fatigue syndrome diagnosis, make sure you rule out these 20 conditions that can mimic ME/CFS! Why? Cuz many have treatments or cures- unlike ME/CFS!🤯

Has anyone considered that maybe we with ME/CFS actually have some sort of invisible energy eating alien parasite latched on to us, and this is actually the start of an alien invasion?
Cuz that’s what it feels like..

“We don’t know how to cure many conditions, but that doesn’t mean that this condition [ME/CFS] doesn’t exist… we don’t know how to treat probably 90% of neurological conditions.”
Dr Tarek Gaber, interview at the #MECFS Clinic in Wigan (2024).
@DiaryofaSickGrl The 80s+90s had tons of dinosaur movies. My favorite was Adventures in Dinosaur City (sadly only on VHS), the Land Before Time (cartoon), Caveman (Ringo was in it), Prehysteria (kids), Carnosaur (B horror), We’re Back (cartoon), but if you want that thriller feeling try Tremors!!
OMG.. The flash flood of severe depression and anxiety that come right before a severe MECFS flareup is so hard to deal with…!
I hate this warning sign so much. 😭
King’s College Hospital in London has opened a rooftop garden for critical care patients, with its first patient, a 29-year-old woman dependent on feeding tubes, saying the outdoor space gave her “a real boost to keep on going.”
@einfachkaffee My theory- naturally muscular body type, and the fact that the body has different needs with strength vs endurance. Theories show oxygen absorbtion as a main MECFS issue, which would affect endurance training (walking, etc) more than short strength bursts (which build muscle) .
Even when ME/CFS starts taking from your mind, you think there’s some limit - something that’s yours, that is sacred and defines you in some way, or is just you in some core way that nothing, including ME/CFS can touch. But there isn’t. ME/CFS keeps going and will keep taking…

@Welnesschick@MelanieWeckert When i did my round in the radiation oncology department back in the day (where they do the radiation therapy treatments), I was actually super surprised how they didnt stress masks or washing hands (or even not coming in sick), despite most patients having weak immune systems..!
@linds_longcovid Yes. Medical trauma is known to cause cPTSD.
Unfortunately many of us stop going to the doctors (or dentists) even when we need to, because of this.
I did a long and boring video explaining about it, back in the day, lol.
