edit: posted some OT stuff about Marc Alexander-Fluks (who seems to have posted some strange stuff in the past) as I thought he was the writer of...
Other possible speakers who might be good for providing a patient perspective on the issues Cochrane have been ignoring (but might also not be...
I thought most of your points were really good, but there's a slight danger with this one of playing into the 'anti-psychiatry' meme. It's...
I was hoping that they'd be able to tell us! I've no idea what causes ME/CFS. I tend to assume that none of the current criteria are able to pick...
I've totally given up on Sonya and Holgate doing the right thing. They have a clear responsibility to speak out against PACE, the way results were...
I find it hard to be consistently outraged when something manages to make them sound even worse than they really are. Still, in the long-run...
Sorry - that way a typo/brain-glitch that I edited before you replied, but it looks like after you started your reply. I meant to write...
I think that there could also be differences between the US and UK? In the US 'liberal' seems to more mean 'left'. I know that when I first...
All terms like this are a bit difficult, but I think that it's fair to tie aspects of the current British Establishment's assumptions about...
Questions they're asking - maybe worth discussing that here now?: What would make the conference appealing? Think about things you’d like to do,...
This is clearly ME related politics imo. One could argue that a lot of the PACE stuff is more political than 'science'. There are probably no...
Maybe it would be good to ask them to explain why it was that patient concerns (specifically the published responses from Courtney and Kindlon)...
There are a lot of problems today, but I'm not sure things have ever been that great. Seems like there need to be constant battle against abuses...
I wonder what inside knowledge she has which is leading her to think this is a sensible strategy for her. Presumably she's confident that Action...
I thought this was a good piece. Great to have Watts speaking out on issues like this, and in the Wessely letter. A good 'un?
He's the philosopher-king of British psychiatry.
It's Jo Daniels, who has been doing poor CFS stuff for years. I wonder who organised this, surely even Action for ME wouldn't choose to have her...
Thanks for all the comments. I totally missed this paper when it came out.
I'd assume so.
I'd assume he meant 'unrelated to the vaccine'. I've not looked at the studies myself, but saw a discussion of them which made them sound solid (I...
