Tamara @chydorina & Tess @ales_frost both experienced extreme, “state-change”, temporary, remission events from ME/CFS, w/⏫in baseline afterwards

#remissionbiome refers to a self-experiment to recreate the experience. 🧵 with summary.

They will take AmoxClav, probiotics, prebiotics, postbiotics, & exogenous ketones during their experiment.

Before, during (if a remission event happens), & after they will test with @biomesight @ProdromeScience @imyoohealth & some blood tests like TNF alpha, CMP, CBC

There are many possible hypotheses for what might have happened during their temporary remission events, but many follow: Change in gut → mass neuroglia homeostatic event → sudden⏬in sickness response

They are continually adding ideas to this graphic: tinyurl.com/37up776m

While both experienced short-term remissions (2 days for Tess & 4 hours for Tamara) both experienced a⏫in baseline function w/in a few months that was very significant. Tamara went from Severe to Moderate (bedridden to walking) & Tess went from Severe/Moderate to Moderate/Mild.

While temporary remission is the immediate goal, it is not the ultimate goal: which is a lasting shift in baseline function, one that might even be kicked up a notch a few times with repeated temporary remissions.
