      I hope I have posted this article in the correct area. I've been following the break through research from Professor Sonya Marshall-Gradisnik at the Griffith University in Brisbane since 2018.

      A friend who was studying to become a nurse put me onto it as she knew I had been diagnosed with ME.

      Wondered if anyone else has read this info & can share anything further. It would be interesting to find out more on the subject.

      I've also attached an older article from 2017 that explains a little more about the TRPM3 receptors & is in layman's terms for easier reading.

          I've definitely read from some people on Facebook who say that low-dose Naltrexone helped their symptoms somewhat, but I've also read from others (including me) who tried it and it didn't help us at all

          Severe and mostly progressive ME/CFS since 1994. Homebound/bedridden since 2000

            @DJamie Let's hope they are able to start those clinical trials.
