Me inbetween every paragraph

Love the passive aggressive comment about how the coping strategy employed by ME/CFS organisations did worse than the treatment groups. Seriously though, what sort of 'Spasti' wrote this garbage? PACE led to moderate improvements? In which universe? This is the most impressive thing about...

Of course the conclusion is part of the issue You should never be able to conclude that a given treatment is effective when a study is as methodologically flawed as PACE. The Lancets nonchalant attitude towards flawed methodology is incredibly concerning.

What is this significant research activity they are talking of? The 5 million dollars a year the illness received annually? I always get so frustrated that they get away with making stuff up like this unchallenged. Sending our best and brightest! YOU'RE WELCOME NORWAY

Love this woman!! Always enjoy these Solve ME/CFS talks, they do really manage to give a unique insight into the machinery of science to us laypeople.

Eugh, stupid Oscar lobbying - Extremely tough to compete with movies that have been years and years in the making and have the power of Netflix lobbying behind them. Have to admit that the field was tough this year though. Last men in Aleppo, Abacus and Icarus all deserved the nominations.

I barely have the heart to translate the article. Looked like the school did what it could to accommodate the children, but my swedish reading comprehension isn't exactly the best. This article on the matter is better written...

There is a certain irony in that the deconditioning theory was actually debunked by psych wackos from the Netherlands. Strong believers in CBT / GET who happen to be really good colleagues with wessely and co. Basically they ran through their older CBT studies which had employed actometers, and...

BBCs turnaround regarding ME/CFS has definitely been ongoing for a while. Some of you might remember this interview for BBCs Ouch Disability Talk. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p05mgjjz The interviewer Natasha Lipman suffers from ME/CFS and works as chronic illness blogger as a writer for...

I feel like this is actually the most well written coverage of SMILE / PACE from a news site so far. By covering both sides of the debate, the article actually manages to make Crawley and Bristol come off as uniquely inept. Mega awkward Although the author does his best to remain neutral...
