Lesbian Aids
This article examines the term “lesbian AIDS” as a lens to explore contested definitions of lesbian identity, community, and illness during the AIDS crisis (1989–99). Drawing on lesbian archives and chronic illness narratives, it investigates how chronic fatigue syndrome and related conditions were politicized in relation to AIDS, reflecting competing frameworks of illness and identity. The article analyzes how these debates shaped activism, rang…
Patients as knowledge partners in the context of complex chronic conditions
This article conveys how taking patient knowledge seriously can improve patient experience and further medical science. In clinical contexts related to infection-associated chronic conditions and other complex chronic illnesses, patient knowledge is often undervalued, even when clinicians have limited training in diagnosing and treating a particular condition. We argue that there are opportunities for clinicians and researchers to collaborate wit…
A Syndrome in Search of a Virus
In 1984, a team of American researchers led by Robert Gallo announced that HIV causes AIDS. Seven months later, the US Centers for Disease Control investigated a postviral illness of unknown cause, which would later be known as chronic fatigue syndrome (aka myalgic encephalomyelitis, or ME/CFS). This article argues that ME/CFS’s emergence was entangled with HIV/AIDS. Once the cause of AIDS was widely agreed upon by the 1990s, the virus-to-syndrom…

Pain and Shock in America
Recursive Debility
This article examines the contestation of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). Lacking consistent diagnostic definitions, agreed-on biological indicators, or approved treatments, ME/CFS is an incompletely medicalized condition. It is defined by intractable and debilitating exhaustion after any form of exertion. Through an ethnographic exploration of an American ME/CFS patient activist group, I develop the concept of "recur…
