I have to wonder what the hypothesis they are testing is. Is this required to be stated in a clinical trial? I'll be surprised if it makes any sense as we all would but i would like to know. This reminds me of a change.org petition a while back (paraphrasing) its common to name airports after...

Try saying that 3 times fast (forum members should not attempt this) :woot:

Well now its technically 100.395% (presumably before matching) Lets hope it keeps climbing :trophy@

Technically 100.288% :nerd:

I don't know who that is but perhaps 10K is whats in the shopping bag in David Tuller's latest article? http://www.virology.ws/2018/04/24/trial-by-error-the-shopping-bag-study-and-new-york-states-revamped-website/

I love the hard hitting bluntness of David's articles, these paragraphs stood out in that regard

Fair enough, but its very little very late. I assume when we speak of CBT/GET its the deny you have an illness version.

Their statement is basically trying to play both sides. They seem to realize that blanket support for GET/CBT is incorrect but they don't want to disavow it, they still think it has merit (or are afraid to denounce it). For an organization that claims to represents patients they are doing the...

Most trials are short term, few look for long term effects and most drugs never get tested for long term effects. That said i think there was a followup (or was there supposed to be) who knows what happened there

He is grasping for straws, its as simple as that.

Very nice :)

Indeed, though we are coming down to the wire soon

Now he is trolling (as if he wasn't before) My answer to that would be yes ME patients can have families, caregivers and sometimes even friends who care about them

MEmillitant is very good, an S4ME member?

Unfortunately there are many diseases that are actually diagnosed by symptoms and have no objective test such as Parkinsons, Alzheimers, Narcolepsy, Depression (as mentioned) and so forth. So it comes down to is it a uniform disease mechanism and how well proven are the diagnosis criteria

No worries, just glad to see your hard hitting articles in print :)
