I think finally after all these years of not being listened to about how bad the BPS crowd is Sharpe is doing more for us than we could ever do.
If policy makers and other docs don't wake up in abundance it will be amazing. Having said all that it still could takes years of bureaucracy and...
The only thing that has reinforced the idea that CBT and GET are useful for ME is the SMC by promoting a trial that didn't stick to its protocol, recovery and improvement definitions.
The actual data from PACE proved that if you cook the books halfway through a trial you can claim success from...
He is basically trying to say that ME is a subjective condition with no objective markers so they did a subjective study of treatments.
Except they had objective measures of improvement to measure but decided not to and changed the protocol halfway through the non controlled study and changed...
