I put her misinterpretation down to sloppiness and lack of attention to detail, especially after she referred to us as "ME Science, a kind of discussion blog ..." (as an aside, I'll be back to teaching students how to give presentations next Monday, and will include such tips as don't overuse...

This thread has been split from the CMRC conference thread here. See also the MEA Summary page 9. Well I do think many of us (myself included) are hiding from healthcare because we can do without the patronizing abuse which is all many health-care providers seem to have to offer, and I also...

It's actually to make theft easier so that Bayer gets more orders from companies whose employees nick stuff.

I've done some googles: https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/aspirin-asprins.1771200/ https://www.wordhippo.com/what-is/the-plural-of/aspirin.html https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/aspirin

Well that's not true - politicians take them very seriously and go straight to them for all their data needs. Need to back up a new policy with data? Throw a few million at some psychologists, they'll never let you down.

The great thing about plummeting it's one of those tasks where no memory or concentration is required, it's one of the few things ME sufferers can do just as well as everyone else. Surprised there hasn't been a study on it.

Are you saying that you are not sure you could manage to land if you jumped out of an airplane? I'm pretty sure you would land eventually, even if you exerted no effort at all.

I think there was a thread in which the amounts that are known to have been contributed to PACE by various parties were added up and didn't come very near to 5m, so the questions arises where the rest came from. If the 5m figure originated from the PACE authors, "plucked out of the air" is as...

Sounds like the Wessely approach. Details and committing yourself can be so tiresome.

Is the only source of the 5 million figure the PACE authors? I can't help thinking that if the number is true, it will be the first reliable and accurate number they've ever given for anything. They could have inflated it or deflated it for any number of reasons (inflating and deflating numbers...

And with my moderator's hat on: Discussing supplements on their own merits and exchanging personal experiences is fine of course, but there is no need for any reference to other forums. All references to other forums will be removed from this thread, as they are not relevant and likely to...

That has been exactly my approach. I will be coming up to 5 years of ME at the end of this year. I've been keeping daily data for the last 3.5 years, and after reviewing it and how I have been doing this year I think I'm ready to claim that I have significantly improved, and may write about it...

Has he actually read it?

A rather fluffy, waffly article, containing a few of my favourite alarm-bell phrases such as: And when something isn't beyond doubt, it's all maybe, possibly, "iffy" (yes, he really said "iffy"), "much remains to be learned" non-commital waffle. Here's another "secret" you may not be aware...

Yes, that's why I said that the epigenetic model is so limited, it neglects gravitational wave theory. If you stub your toe hard enough it sends out a gravitational wave which causes a space-time distortion in exactly the way you describe. I will be publishing a paper in the Bristol Echo...

He just stops reading these days (when he hears that word you mentioned). Lapses in logic are explicitly welcomed - how do you think BPS theory progresses? The epigenetic explanation is so last Thursday, and fails to explain those cases where ancestral trauma is transmitted after the genes have...

Well I teach English to a 70-year old Jewish lady, both of whose grandfathers died in concentration camps, and she's as fit as a fiddle and bright as a button. How many people whose ancestors suffered trauma are not chronically ill? How does the incidence of chronic illness of people whose...

Neuroscience innit?

I used to have the flu jab every year. Last time I had it, I got the flu that winter, so now I don't bother.
