circling back to add: straight after my reply, netflix decided to repeatedly lose its memory of my last watched ep for a series I've binged without issue many times before, and it's also stopped autoplaying next ep. *this has never ever happened to me before* (on netflix) can't believe I jinxed it 😭

Acid reflux

emotion as it progressed. I hope they go on and use Mito to talk about key topics in more detail e.g. PEM/pacing, gaslighting by doctors/others and how it harms us, how/why there's no treatments, the #ME#LC connection... there's a long list of important messaging they could cover.

I watched the full colour/no music version earlier. it's a great intro to #ME for those who know nothing (which, let's face it, is the vast majority of ppl!) at first I wasn't sure about how effective the overall tone was going to be but the voice actor did an excellent job of invoking appropriate 👇
