Still confused by a lot of this. In the BMC paper I linked to above, it is written: Am I right they are dismissing the idea of disease even in...
A fatigue clinic in Holland using CCS model based on Jo Nijs’work. Google translation below from their page: Physiotherapy in patients with...
This pic sums up the steps in development of CSS well!
Briefly, the paper below gave me the clearest explanation yet how CSS dismisses the idea of actual disease or injury but from the paper the ‘idea...
Thank you everyone. I am in crash after reading up on all this (am bedridden) so can’t type much, but all the replies really helpful. This CSS...
I know central sensitisation theory is the new buzzword by many of the bps brigade, Per Fink refers to it a lot in his slides, and has no...
Thank you @Dx Revision Watch for your clear explanation, all clear now. Also thank you for your, hopefully, successful proposal to put CFS under...
@Dx Revision Watch, sorry I am bit confused on the above. Are you saying SNOMED has accepted including the term CFS under the parent title...
Sorry I haven’t read through the thread, so sorry if this has already been addressed, but I contacted Forward ME, as it confused me, who kindly...

According to Afme website, the CEO, Sonia C, was appointed in September 2012 so was in place when both Crawley and White got funds from them. Also...
@lisette, you raise excellent points showing the many things Afme have done wrong, but briefly I don’t believe they are currently funding any...
Thanks @Sasha for explaining how conferences work. Will the committee reviewing the submissions be members of BACME so they can cherry pick to an...
*Do you mean it's invitation only* I presume they choose who to invite as speakers such as Per Fink. One of the members is a physiotherapist who...
They choose the non-BACME members to present and it won’t be by and large the biomedical researchers. I don’t know what will happen if they merge...
I cant write much today as symptoms flaring but my own experience and countless others I know were banned from Afme Facebook not under the...
I really hope so and think it’s possible we are, but after so many years of seeing ME minimised and wrongly framed as a behavioural condition I...
