I would be so disappointed if you were not completely out of touch with popular culture. It would seriously undermine your credibility as an...
It might be safer to go for a non-descriptive name, like Ramsay’s Disease or perhaps some other proper name like Matthees – it would be a great to...
I sense I’m in a minority here but I’m not at all attached to the ME label. It’s much better than CFS, and I’m happy for it to be used, but...
Anoyone following this thread, please see the correction I have added to my original post. Apologies for the mistake.
Wasn’t sure where to post this as it’s not an ME/CFS study, so please move if necessary. (Moderator note: thread has been moved.) I’ve only read...

I think the quote you’re thinking of is “The bastards don’t want to get better.” It was said by a supervisor in the FINE trial. You can find it...
May God forgive me for my part in ruining the lives of some of these vulnerable psychiatrists but this claim is not supported by the data.
Thanks. I hadn’t actually noticed that, but I was wondering why it was suddenly getting so much attention. That was the point I was making in my...
I don’t disagree, but the problem is that this has been used as an excuse for not funding anything in the past. If the ring-fenced funds can be...
I agree that just ring-fencing will not be enough. But I maintain that it is important, and may be a prerequisite. We certainly need the right...
