Sorry. I've never really been able to understand how homeopathy works. Guess I'm just not clever enough :(

I was developing more empathy before I had ME, doing volunteer work teaching homeless teenagers once a week. I had to give it up and lie on the sofa with a headache instead. People who talk about the wonderful benefits of insight or whatever they've gained through illness never seem to compare...

Well I haven't taken any homoepathic sleeping pills so I should be dead.

From Michael Sharpe: Is he trying to be funny? He's not seriously trying to imply that the authors were unduly selective in the choice of data to include in their analyses is he? Words almost fail me. It's not as if the authors wouldn't have gladly used the whole trial dataset, but somebody...
