I don't think we need to suggest that therapies actually work to explain why proponents are utterly convinced they do. All health care...
I could agree that in an ideal world this might be the case. But it is not an ideal world. Problems I see are: 1. Even if there are some people...
I do have reservations about some of the other recommendations. Reference to 'MCAS' has no place here. Recommending changing drug dosages is also...
I am not sure what is controversial about these methods of feeding. There are standardised guidelines for when to use various methods, in the UK...
Real data don't come from retrospective compiling of medical records. And if this person is not an academic and not doing any serious research...
I am aware that some physicians call themselves neurogastroenterologists. Some of them may know what they are doing but a number of 'eminent' ones...

The point I am making has nothing to do with overall credibility. It is a matter of what I was entitled to claim as an outside observer being...

I don't doubt that people think they were made worse by LP but I don't have proof. Simply because we have no physical proof of anything going on...
