A discussion of the symptoms, epidemiology, diagnostic criteria, pathogenesis, treatment, and prognosis of ME/CFS. For more information, I recommend checking out: me-pedia.org Because I anticipate it may be the most controversial topic raised in the video, the hypothesis that ME and CFS may be overlapping but distinct conditions is discussed in this paper: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuFPIDylLJY (I watched it and found it reasonably informative and balanced)
When discussing the claim that ME, CFS and SEID are distinct clinical entities based solely on their definitions / diagnostic criteria, I find it helpful to remember these two comments on one of Frank Twisk’s papers from @Trish and @Jonathan Edwards (bolding mine):
Lese-majeste is frowned upon there. Although it only applies to their monarch, and you can be as rude as you like about the Mountbatten-Windsor clan while staying in Bangkok.
Ah, I'm safe then. Prince Charles no longer exists, he's a figment of my imagination. I believe there's a King Charles.
The elephant is the official animal of Thailand. However, there are no rhinos in Thailand anymore and Prince Charles is gone, so we know after all who the animal those people you mentioned were describing is.
So it wasn't like asking three people @Trish cos you know it couldn't be Prince Charles. We have to be rigorous about our arguments here. Homeopathic royalty too dilute to exist is unlikely to be confused with pachyderms.
