We had psychiatrists claiming it was mass hysteria until fairly recently.
Honestly i’m still not sure, but what if it is? Is there any proof that it is not?
I think that there’s never been found any physically measurable indication for ME/CFS or Long Covid. From all we know, either it’s hormone-meditated and we have no fucking clue what hormone(s) do(es) it, or it is really psychological, maybe some mechanism buried deep within the subconscious.
With newer mri machines we can show an inflammation in the brainstem in ME/CFS patients. Since those machines are rare, expensive and often not necessary for a dignosis we don’t know a lot yet.
