That seems a tenable argument. Obviously if exercise does make anything better it "isn't".

Does he recognise paranoia when he sees it? Especially in himself. "I'll get killed for this". He is such a hero to make his comments regardless of risk to personal safety. Or perhaps he just realises that hyperbole has its effects.

It looks as though Aston has an MSc. Was that frm KCL?

Just a moment. He has learnt about the importance of gentle exercise. I thought he was engaging in military style exercises with his mates in Sefton Park. The message seems to be mixed.

Has anyone pointed out that this appears to be a direct contradiction of the "findings" of Imboden, Canter and Cluff relating to chronic brucellosis and Asian flu, and upon which the BPS model for CFS was partly based? As Fauci seems to have supported Straus over the issue who are we to believe?

It's a shame they don't have anyone to advise them on media presentation.

There is something faintly amusing about that comment by CG that she needed to employ a personal trainer. Apparently fervent advocates of GET do not know the fundamentals of increasing exercise. Many of those whom she has in the past addressed on the subject would have been familiar with the...

I wonder whether he'll go back as far as WW2, and "Is your journey really necessary?"

He does like a military metaphor, doesn't he? So here is a question. If you are looking down the barrel of a gun, and the trigger is not pulled, have you disarmed the gun?

Don't like to be picky with our friends, but sometimes we must. With reference to that tweet from Maureen Hanson, what is the course of ME/CFS? It seems to have a multiplicity of courses, in line with its probably heterogeneous nature.

It has occurred to me that there is a way of potentially explaining PGs recovery or remission-only time will tell which it is. Whether or not it is the correct interpretation is an entirely different issue. . The relapsing/remitting form of the condition can present very sudden switches. The...

I'm not sure... but I have been thinking that there must be some hoping to become beknighted.

IN the US who picks up the bill for involuntary detention in hospital? What would happen if the patient under involuntary detention instructed his insurance company not to pay? Presumably there is then an argument as to whether he has capacity to give such an instruction. It would be interesting...

...now, is that a double bluff. or not?

Don't be too harsh on Greenhalgh. She's merely complying with Covid restrictions and forming her own "bubble".

Don't we already have enough people specialising in MUS? Admittedly they have no interest in finding explanations.

The idea of recovery is interesting. From the suggested timeline he might have had something like six weeks free, to what extent we do not know, of symptoms. By his account he then caught Dengue and was il. If he recovered fully from that he cannot have had much more than another six weeks...

Strangely enough, if i remember correctly, which I probably don't, a made-up medical condition was involved.

I remember discussing with the children an English A level text. What interest was provided by the "unreliable narrator"!

I am puzzled by Garner's account, and the timeline. From the early posts it seems that he became ill in early March. He says he was referred to an ME specialist seven months later. That would be October. He had to wait for the appointment. Let's guess at end of October. After a couple of months...
