Would all this be interesting for Myhill's complaint to GMC?

Those actometers really are a bit bothersome - so what?! Are we three-year-olds? I have to wear it for one week every three months, also during sleep and showering. I don't like it, but it's no burden. That's just a cheap excuse of the PACE authors.

I ponder about that for a while now... The problem is a little bit like with "psychological diagnoses". Officially (somewhere in the past it seems...), before diagnosing a "psychological disease" all other possible physical causes must be excluded --- before diagnosing ME all other possible...

Only if you happen to lack money. If you have enough money, lots of diagnostics is performed, often helpful and insightful. I sometimes watch a TV show where people with rare and difficult illnesses are presented. One thing that was conspicuous was the amount of imaging, laboratory and other...

Such things were really said! And: I think this is supposed to be funny. And I could laugh indeed if it wasn't for this statement: This, without any doubt, reveals a highly questionable character unfit for scientific work. (The quotes are from reference [8].) That's just so unbelievable...

I went through Leon Bradlow's publication list and looked at his 80s publications - there wasn't a study where it was mentioned the cohort consisted only of men (where it was about breast cancer, estrogen, uterine cancer). But to be fair, most papers are behind paywalls, and many abstracts...

Still...that this should really have happened..? You want to know more about breast and uterine cancer and only look at men? It's really hard for me to believe such a thing really happened. Hm.

Maybe because they are girls, and as you know, it was the woman that brought sin into the world and who reproduces it (due to e.g. Augustinus). Nowadays there even still exist people who think that euthanasia is a good thing, so why not believe in the inferiority of the female, too - or in any...

Come on, this has to be a joke.

I like what Maya Dusenbery writes. I often had the thought that psychiatry is sexistic. Of course, many men suffer (and have suffered) due to psychiatry, too. But when I came across stories from the past - where e.g. some husbands were fed up with their wives and decided to dispose themselves...

Some enlightening would surely do them good...Certainly LP can help.

@TrixieStix, your story is so very exciting! I am very interested indeed in how it will continue. Thank you for keeping us up to date.

Thank you, @YaS, well-said!

Totally agree with you, @Joh.

Yes, you can buy it online via his homepage. I think so, too. I value that. Still, well-meant is not well-done.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is listed as an example for MUS. There's a German guideline going into that direction, too. Maybe it's time to dig up the "ME vs. CFS" discussion again (well, not literally :) ), and not to focus on whether the word is the correct one for the disease, but which one is...

I have written today to Invest in ME.

Yes, that's what I wondered, too. Quite a coincidence that he should confirm Mrs Klasing's "private" eMail. Thank you, @Snow Leopard. As a hypothesis "the amygdala arousal" may have its place, but to state it as fact is not acceptable. So it seems there are different belief groups - the BPS...

Today I sent my letter via eMail. Tomorrow I will send it via post too, as said on MyHill's homepage. Thank you, @Keela Too, your letter was helpful.

From Prof. Stark's statement: Are there objective proofs for these statements? Is this reality? Do people here experience that? In my personal case the amygdala is undersupplied (or under-active). Maybe that's not a contradiction though?! Of course, the self-help module he talks about is not...
