The bait and switch “no we don’t think it’s purely psychological, it’s very real…because you manifest it into real symptoms- with your thoughts” is starting to grate.

May be of interest to @Jonathan Edwards apologies if not

Why was he introduced as a “Covid expert” (whatever that is) and not as Emeritus Professor of Epidemiology?

Trip is a well known brand available in most supermarkets. I couldn’t manage a whole one at first. Now I’ve graduated to the hard stuff - CBD and caffeine Medahuman. It actually makes me “drunk”. I used to like beer and AF beer, but again can’t bear the taste any more.

Thanks for the update. Even the one takeaway “not involved with Peter Gladwell” is good to have.

My recent liver etc blood results apparently normal and “show very clearly you don’t drink alcohol” thank you HCP! I did have a strange phase when mild, ahead of a crash I was craving Gin & Tonic, and Chinese noodles (both of which I hate).

I’d like to think he won’t be back on Good Morning Britain either. Can’t see Kate Garraway having a chat with him, although I guess Derek Draper died from Covid, rather than he had LC.

When I was mild I drank plenty, for years! I think the hangovers were worse, but it was easy to drink because it feels soooooo good. I think it felt better than before (because I felt normal). When I deteriorated I was drinking less due to lack of energy. When I became severe, I stopped because...

On the one hand, it’s good to have him on a panel of experts as it exposes him. Luckily the Beeb have taken the “balance of views” thing in the right direction here. On the other hand, he has certainly made a lot of media appearances which gives us a fascinating history to look at - members of...

Well Charles Shepherd was giving him advice. Must be nice to be having the VIP treatment, only to dismiss it a few months later.

May 2020 This article is the one where he mentions his sister and her personal experience of ME/CFS and she coaches him. https://meassociation.org.uk/2020/05/british-medical-journal-opinion-covid-19-and-fatigue-a-game-of-snakes-and-ladders-20-may-2020/ also, if he’s swapped trance for “dreamy...

If chocolate coffee and orange caused my migraines I’d be in a permanent migraine!

Also that stress, hormones, sleep deprivation act as a catalyst. I’m used to them being framed more as “me making the wrong choices/failing to look after myself” I never believed the food trigger theory, that was always clear to me that I craved these because it was underway already.

“Emerging research” sounds like it exists but nobody else can see it.

I’ve been to the opticians and am certainly not going to Paul Garner’s talk tonight, just in case he was worried. If he is indeed allowed to speak, what withmystrious forces silencing him.

He is an epidemiologist who worked on infectious diseases at the Lpool School of Tropical Medicine, but he hasn’t “worked” on anything COVID. It’s all very muddy. As he’s said he worked on Cochrane or helped set it up. It’s not just his “post-Covid condition” - daily 5km walks before the 6 month...

So silenced, much deplatformed.

Well they’ve asked now, we might not get. It might take years to get.

It’s lo-fi like the Wizard of Oz, just click your heels!

I’ve developed a woo technique, whenever I see this kind of pseudo psych thing, I just look away and say “Decode ME, Decode ME, Decode ME” it makes me feel better, maybe we should do a trial?
