Unfortunately the body can only heal itself to a point; aging slows that down. While malfeasance exists, there is a lot more that is simply unknown about various illnesses, particularly autoimmune illness. I wish you luck pursuing a solution.
I would assume you have tried both conventional and non-conventional medicine. I am sorry to hear nothing has worked. You may have permanent damage from an infection/exposure, and I am afraid that therapies for ME are still in their infancy. You can support the work of OMF.
Holistic Medicine is not banned in the UK, it is regulated. Certain herbal ingredients are banned or restricted.

Nobody is talking about this, but Casey Means was nominated as surgeon general on and referred to the Senate HELP Committee on June 2. As of July 31, the committee has not advanced her nomination due to missing paperwork. The Surgeon General has to have a medical license, which she does not have.
This crap about Trump bringing peace repeated today on The Global National, much to my disgust.

Research into CFS/ME has been going on for decades, but gene sequencing has now enhanced possibilities for both identification and treatment. Some individual ill-informed doctors' readiness to believe women have psychosomatic illness should not be confused with research taking place in labs.
You are saying that a specific group of viruses are the cause behind millions of people being diagnosed with CFS or ME, when CFS/ME is actually a collection of symptoms with an unknown cause(s). Epstein-Barr, Enteroviruses, Coxiella burnetii, and COVID have all been looked at as potential culprits.

Absolutely right, Chris
Such amazing medical breakthroughs will be denied to the American people because of anti-science zealots in the White House.
Their resignation letters can be read in full here: insidemedicine.substack.com/p/breaking-n...
What actually matters to MAGA is still pronouns and gendering, not that Dr. Daskalakis said that he had never experienced "such radical non-transparency, nor have I seen such unskilled manipulation of data". And not that Dr. Deb Houry and Dr. Daniel Jernigan resigned too.
That, I know without stats...
I get wildly different info from different places. Cook County, Illinois, had the highest number of homicides in 2023 according to one source, DC had most with 39 per 100K in another, and another says Mississippi had the most then with 20.5. I think I'd like to see raw data.
Definitely greedy and a liar, & favours nepotism, but I think a big part of this whole takeover has an anti-intellectual foundation. So many of these guys are rich and spoiled, and want revenge for being told education and sober thought should inform decisions.
And I know what's coming over whose border, thanks.
Seems like the kind of thing federal agents could handle if they weren’t busy tracking down America’s most wanted DoorDash delivery drivers in DC.
And the more de-funding, the slower it will be.
Why would you think the medical profession knows? Symptoms vary, & when the first coronaviruses were isolated decades ago, it wasn't even known that they were related. There are more viruses & bacteria than there are stars in the universe, so studying them will take some time.

If the pastor wants to argue that the library is paid for with public funds, it should be pointed out that the same is true of his exclusionary church.
Wouldn't this be categorized as "speech that incites imminent lawless action"? If so, then it is not protected. From what I can see, it's still relevant if it is a civil matter, as long as there are damages (in this case, cost of books).
Very good interview. I'd like to see more experienced people like this speaking their minds. It has bipartisan value.
I'll believe it when I see it.
Very interesting!

Because abusing your power is something a creep like Webbon likes to do, and he definitely feels people should worship him.
Hard to be more despicable than re-victimizing victims.
💯Fully agree
Robert Calef attacked Cotton Mather over Salem's slaughter. Objections were made. However, the persecutors worked hard to manufacture consent and they created legislation and pursued the powerful to help their cause. THAT should sound familiar.
It wasn't unanimous. When Heinrich Kramer first tried to prosecute witches he was expelled from the city of Innsbruck by bishop Georg Golser who called him "senile and crazy" and released all the women. John Gaule preached against Matthew Hopkins, "Witch-finder General".
Both Protestants and Catholics had witch hunts and executed witches.

I cannot emphasize enough that the playbook being used against mRNA vaccines (and vaccines in general) is IDENTICAL to the playbook used to restrict voting rights after the 2020 election: actively sow public distrust, then cite the distrust you sowed as an independent reason for your desired policy
It's the choice, far too often, of the bully who has no grasp of the issues. What she is: A hypocrite (3 husbands), tyrannical (she was excused from issuing licenses herself but insisted her clerks shouldn't either), & a lawbreaker (ignoring a court order). Isn't that enough?

Carlos Paz Oh Rui, learn something, boy: Extradition is a process requested by the country of origin. Deportation is a process organized by the country of destination. What you want is deportation, not extradition. You can be racist and xenophobic, but you don't have to be uneducated!
- If we allow people to stay, it encourages other people to use the same means to reach our country, creating a "rocket effect." This worsens the situation, puts more people in danger (e.g., unsafe boats) and fuels human trafficking networks.
