I have spent the last week with Claude Code, instructing it to find all it can about Myalgic Encephalomyelitis / Chronic
Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS).
This paper is the result _so far_.
Specifically, I asked the AI to propose treatment protocols for people with severe ME/CFS, which should yield significant improvements quickly. With the hope to give them back quickly a decent quality of life and the emotional and physical means to fight against this disease in the long term.
Disclaimer: I am not a doctor.
This work is the result of careful instructions given to an AI, including requests for the AI to formulate novel hypotheses, make links to other diseases with similar symptoms or underlying mechanisms.
So, while a part of the paper is generated in a brainstorming mode, the protocols of chapters 16 and 17 are not, and most of the paper has been generated and documented with explicit request of honesty, strictest math. and logic rigor and correctness, rigorous citations of sources.
It also proposes several research directions, sorted from most promising to least promising.
This paper provides additional information and insights (not medical advice - that, you might get from your doctor, maybe sharing the paper with them), I wish it will help those out there who need help managing ME/CFS or who face a continuous lack of energy, wherever it may come from.
