    Esther Crawley's presentations (excluding the 2017 TEDx talk)

    It must be as complex as Bob Monkhouses jokebook by now.

    Yes this is especially significant when they have been congratulating themselves on providing evidence for NICE all these years and going around the world claiming to have recovered people and that up to 60% etc recover.

    I didn't misunderstand you I just used your post as a talking point on that topic.

    Its much more taxing on muscles to try to carry round an adult frame when the neurological currents are not sending sufficient signals though the mass. Hence ones exertion is done in shorter periods of time with the same amount of strain that would be expended in the normal amounts of time in a...

    Well he tweeted previously that people should, "go google the authors of the reanalysis paper to find out how objective they are". As if by entering their names into google it would take one directly to an objective alert page. Perhaps a Wikipedia type 1984 warning page. Its seems pretty clear...

    NICE ME/CFS Guideline stakeholder scoping workshop, Fri 25th May 2018

    The other thing we need to emphasis is that the BPS crowd have had at least 30 years to prove their treatments work and have dismally failed. They have had more than ample resources, time, access to patients, funding, and the ear of policy makers, scientists and doctors etc.

    What I meant was White was using the line,"recovery from the current episode" in typical doublespeak to cover all corners. How long is an episode? What is current? Is an episode a crash or the disease itself. Is managing an "episode" something that professionals have to do because patients "have...

    "Bias is eveywhere". But the wonderful scientific community are self correcting? Interesting however when the FOI hearing happened Trudie Chalder contradicted this notion by admitting the Cochrane review wasn't independent because 3 of the PIs from PACE were on the review panel. She had to...

    Isn't that just pacing anyway, to get maintain a low ceiling level in an incurable neurological disease. If its not pacing I am at a loss to understand what is.

    I think we should definitely point out to NICE that it would be ludicrous to take some anecdotal stuff about supplements or faith healing or homeopathy etc with zero evidence and make them part of the official guidelines so there's no reason to make CBT and GET the official treatments when the...

    Ye kind of like claiming a headache can be cured by hands on faith healing cos after the fifth day of the headache it went after faith healing for the first four days.

    You are bang on about the drugs but I really think mindfulness as it is being used is just CBT etc and potentially has the same disastrous social, medical, abuse and neglect as CBT and GET does for us and children with ME. It may however be the pacing of adhd etc but its so generic and is...

    But that's my whole point, it was BBC "entertainment science". What you saw was an hour of edited tv not published repeated science. The fact that they didn't control a single variable is my point and there was zero long term follow up and only showed us the "efficacy" during mindfulness...

    @Jonathan Edwards If anyone saw the BBC programme this week "the doctor who gave up drugs" there is a fascinating interview he had with I believe a NICE representative after he points out that the scientific literature for anti depressant and I think also ADHD drugs clearly shows almost zero...

    Interesting bluff. Once a question has been "addressed" does that make the answer evidence based and true? You can ask me any question you want whereby our previous answers don't make sense as long as its been addressed before in the same way I will claim I don't need to address it now. I am...
