I've not read the article, but if people can fake having cancer then they can fake having ME. It could also be that this writer is being unfair on their mother. It's probably going to be difficult for us to judge. The upside of ME being such a stigmatised condition is that it wasn't one...

This paper says so little. This form of 'debate', where they present the points that they want to answer, in the form that they want to answer them, and then reply, seems a bit odd to me. They cite the paper on blinding that @Michiel Tack made interesting comments on. The references for this...

That was something my excerpts probably downplay - there were quite a lot about how changing views on how the condition is best diagnosed were likely to be important, with these comments being scattered through sections I found less interesting, but that others could be most interested in.

For some of these things I can find that I use the terminology of the biopsychosocial school just to more easily allow some discussions to take place, but there is a downside to that and it probably does mean I sound as if I'm coming from a position that is not quite my own. Being able to...

We've seen how some people have previously made exaggerated claims about anxiety, post-viral symptoms, etc, but I think that there's some reason to be cautious about viewing Long Covid from only that perspective. The global pandemic, lockdowns, reduced access to psychological care for those who...

Did you have a link for them? I couldn't see them on the BMJ page but I remember just being blind to them previously.

Not sure I remember their old CBT page [edit: David noticed that actually this is still up - it's in a different section of the KCL website]: https://web.archive.org/web/20190405062953/https://www.kcl.ac.uk/ioppn/about/difference/22-CBT-for-chronic-fatigue-syndrome
