Yes, I have always been told that implying the person you're talking to is morron/fraud is a good way to start a constructive discussion. The guy is a psychiatrist and he's lacking basic social skills, and is completelly clueless about it. I am really starting to understand why the PACE trial...

I don't think so. I remember suppressed tweets that couldn't be seen anymore on the forum.

One can speak about the nature of "fear of exercice" in "CFS" a long time, but as a matter of fact, this fear does exist only in the wild imagination of the PACE PIs as, according to Trudie herself, they had to prevent participants in the trial from doing too much before starting to increase...

Oh yeah. Keep digging, Mike.

OMG Too good to be true. I can't believe my eyes. Wow Michael Sharpe treated as the mean and morron bully he really is, at least getting what he deserves.

Wow, that's the first time I see a discussion of the PACE trial on a French medical blog.

Not sure he will engage:

Simon Wessely is in now:

What precisely makes you think it is implausible? (BTW, on the basis of having talked to lots of people with the illness, many doctors think the exact contrary)

I don't understand your reasonning here. Whatever the problem (signaling or not) the CPET tests suggest that there is a problem that is not malingering, nor deconditioning, but has a biological reality. I understand that you're challenging results to be sure they're reliable, but I think...
