I thought I would repost this to highlight again some of the many varied symptoms that can be found in #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis / #ChronicFatigueSyndrome

Particularly relevant when similarities with the #LongCovid presentation in some people are being missed

Of note: “exertional dyspnea” with a prevalence of approx. 80% in ME/CFS:

APPENDIX 2. ME/CFS Symptom Prevalence and Severity (These prevalence and severity figures are from A definition-based analysis of symptoms in a large cohort of patients with chronic fatigue syndrome, P. De Becker, N. McGregor, and K. De Meirleir. Journal of Internal Medicine 2001;250:234-240.) A total of 2,073 consecutive patients with major complaints of prolonged fatigue were assessed. Among them 1,578 met the Fukuda criteria and of those, 951 met the Holmes criteria. The figures indicate the differences in prevalence and severity of symptoms between these patient groups.

@tomkindlon
