Oh, yes, sorry, I meant top comment in the thread, not on Reddit front page.

How is she even still allowed to practice "science"?

For you. A long list of symptoms is not a problem for you, but trust me, as a patient, it's a huge problem. We all learned early on to cull/tailor our list for each specific specialist at this point, bc otherwise there is the rolling of the eyes, the pigeonholing, the suspicion, the...

@Gingergrrl might have some very useful insights :whistle: Edited: to add a warm welcome to @Josie , just noticed this was your first post :hug:

And is surely the cause of any remission of symptoms obtained.

At what point did the meaning of "functional" go from "it's happening but we can't yet identify the cause" to "it's happening but we can't yet identify the cause so you must be imagining it"? Being dizzy is not funny. One cannot talk/think oneself into or out of it. Period. Also, using the...

I admit (shamefaced) that I was very judgy ages ago, before I was sick, though I did not know it, when I had a colleague with Fibro, and a client with severe MCS.

@TiredSam, gold stars for you!

Not to mention, how on earth is it newsworthy or even breathworthy that people are finding support online in 2017? "Woman Finds Adding Sugar To Tea Makes It Taste Sweeter".

Rest well, floppy lil superhero!

Yes and promoted accordingly--as a coping tool--as well as not offered as a scammy pyramid-scheme overpriced hard-sell. That is just bullshit and predatory.

Oh, yes, Forbin, I wasn't addressing this to you, I was saying it generally. I knew what you meant, and I think he's right to challenge her; I've just seen this "challenging question" phrase repeated on the interwebs and it struck me that it could have an unwanted nuance down the line. Even...
