  1. The ME Inquiry Report

    Oslo Chronic Fatigue Network

    A recently published scientific paper on a study investigating how doctors manage patients with fatigue confirms that it is inappropriate for primary care doctors to recruit patients to the Fatigue Study.

    This study is a preparation for another study, namely the Fatigue Study run by the Swedish branch of the Oslo Consortium. Four out of five researchers in this study are also working on the consortium study. I have previously reported on major ethical problems regarding recruitment in the...

    Characterization, Treatment, and Long-term Follow-up of Fatigued Patients in Primary Care (iFAS), Lindsäter et al

    FSI now confirms that they have attempted to influence the actions of the IVO and states that they have taken the matter a step further. Read more on the blog...
  6. The ME Inquiry Report

    News from Scandinavia

    I have read IVO's decisions in the patient complaints regarding the care at Ameliekliniken. In a series of three posts, I share the content and reflect on the fact that several patient associations (both RME and FSI) have attempted to influence IVO's decisions. All three posts are published on...
  7. The ME Inquiry Report

    Oslo Chronic Fatigue Network

    Thank you @Trish (and @Peter Trewhitt )! I feel the same way, that I shouldn't be shocked, but I still am. And above all, I am so frustrated that there is no public discussion about this beyond what I write and publish. The media acts as megaphones without any fact-checking. Consortium members...

    I have tried to summarize what has happened in Sweden since the consortium's secret meeting took place in Oslo 2022.

  9. The ME Inquiry Report

    News from Scandinavia

    I have tried to articulate what I see happening on a broader scale right now in Sweden. I'm not sure if it comes across in the translation, as much depends on the language and the words that are used. Implications. But maybe? ”It feels like we have suddenly found ourselves in the middle of some...

    We have no idea - there a lot strange things going on. Blogposts from July 2024 and till now in this link…(to much brainfog to explain it all in english right now, but ask me questions)...

    Big news from Sweden: Fatigue diagnosis to be disappeared

    This is exactly Lindsäter's intentions. I have written about it, among other things, in this post. https://mitteremitage-wordpress-com.translate.goog/2025/03/28/vad-blir-konsekvensen-for-patienterna/?_x_tr_sl=sv&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=sv&_x_tr_pto=wapp There is also a lecture with her in English...

    Big news from Sweden: Fatigue diagnosis to be disappeared

    Yes, exactly that. And we must remember that Lindsäter suddenly got to participate in revising the guidelines in the Stockholm region without any specialist knowledge or connection to ME care (beyond the Fatigue Study). And she was also invited to the meeting about the future of ME care in the...

    Big news from Sweden: Fatigue diagnosis to be disappeared

    The biggest problem for me is that Lindsäter, who is part of the Oslo Consortium, has been made an expert on this issue by the media. She has previously stated, on behalf of the consortium, that ED and ME are the same thing, and is now leading the Fatigue Study where they lump everything...

    The National Association for ME Patients (RME) has published a call to its members to report the lack of specialist care to the Health and Social Care Inspectorate, which is involved in investigating patient safety and injuries due to care. However, they do not specify what type of care RME...
  18. The ME Inquiry Report

    News from Scandinavia

    I am concerned about the government assignment based on their emphasis on the lack of evidence, that they base the assignment on the problematic and much criticized conclusions of the National Board of Health and Welfare, and that the assignment focuses on mapping knowledge governance in other...
