I guess if one day these FMT pill drop in price, then people might be able to afford to take them every 3 months say. In fact, if these pills improved you enough so that you could get back to work, you could probably afford to take them every 3 months even at current prices (of $635 a time).
I wonder why KDM's experience with fecal transplant indicates the improvements in ME/CFS only last 10 weeks, whereas the Borody study I cited above found that for ME/CFS patients with comorbid IBS, the fecal transplant benefits lasted indefinitely (sustained for two decades so far).
I don't know anything of KDM's work on FMT. Both the study you posted and the comment I found dated from 2012, would be interesting to know if KDM still maintains that line.
From a quick search it looks like KDM still maintains that line. I get the impression he isn't a big proponent of FMT. Call me cynical but there's always the possibility that there's more profitable products to peddle.
