For me, the main thing is the picking apart of poor research like PACE. There's still a lot more work to do, but I think that clearing up the mess...
Thanks. The trouble is that every form of evidence can be corrupted and needs to be critically assessed - unfortunately, that's a lot of work, and...
Up to 723 now... that's not actually much of an increase. I wrongly thought it was 620 earlier today. Thanks to all the signatories.
I'd be surprised if there was a single diagnostic biomarker. It seems more likely that we're going to end up picking off different sub-groups over...
I agree that if there are people behaving badly, then we want them charged, or at least publicly shamed as individuals for what they have actually...
Sorry to bring you down! I'm basically middle-aged now, so it's not saying much. I looked back and thought my first post on this look irritatingly...
I think I failed to be clear. I was writing on the assumption everyone would realise I do not respect Fink's work. I wasn't saying that I found...
A more emotional response: Realistically, this was my last chance of an effective treatment while still able to pass as anything but middle-aged....
Physical symptoms... from? Lots of his 'reality' points seem really problematic. The whole idea of lumping together patients with such a wide...
In that case we'd be assuming everyone who followed the topic had a vested interest. You could well be right about this person, but I think it can...
Oh yes, I'm not saying Fink is a good guy! But, for example, I was still surprised he saw concerns about patients being preoccupied with symptoms...
One good thing is that I do not think that this should be used against us - fortunately lots of patients stayed relatively cautious. [edit: Not...
The solution has been found!
Yes, but it also seemed like maybe some of his slides were intended to represent bad practice/misguided views? The third from final slide then...
Thanks.
Just saw this: [MEDIA] No idea what Dr Oz is like, but he's got millions of followers on twitter, so it's certain to get quite some reach.
@Nathalie Wright - you might be interested in Pia Cox's presentation above, and the use of claims about the benefits of rehabilitation to justify...
Thanks @inox, and welcome to the forum. I'm sure I've seen loads of these quotes, but I've never thought to compile them, so don't know how to...
Anyone mates with him? It's rather a shame that so many are us are rather lacking connections with powerful people (or anyone much). I saw Tuller...
Thanks Jo, and Sasha. Good to do what we can to make the most of these sorts of thing.
