Oh, Professor Wyller will only inoculate 5 year olds who fit the predictors (and its not all in the mind, its all in the brain you see): Thankyou, I was wondering where COFFI came into it. COFFI supplied the registry:

Oh - that sounds - ominous. I have heard of behavioural science applied in behavioural analysis to do the behavioural assessments and modifications, the behavioural therapy. But behavioural prevention - how do COFFI and Professor Wyller expect to prevent his child and adolescent patients...

But you cannot have the brain stand in for the mind. The brain is part of the body. The central nervous system is part of the nervous system which is a bodily organ. All the bodily organs are integral. In this shower of verbal connections, the "mind-body connection" is not biological, rather...

But heh, here is the genius who can solve that ancient conundrum, which came first, the chicken or the egg, he will persist and report back in due course, a man who likes his chicken with his egg. Two alternative models is where he starts, because it is either one way or the other, the body...

"Poorly understood" means wilfully misunderstood, avoidably misunderstood, avoidable because this "misunderstanding" is only due to systematic propaganda calling illness a propaganda. "I've been told that I'm spreading propaganda, that I'm lying, that the condition doesn't exist."- not an aid...

At the time of writing, Britain was still adjusting to a preview of the current ME/CFS Guideline, which was by then determined to exclude various favored rehabilitation theories, nevertheless still misused to disqualify people who were too ill to work. This leaflet is filed under Education &...

This 2020 article gave an old link to buy the leaflet. But that page is no longer to be found. This new link gives the leaflet for free: December 2020 by Dr Charles Shepherd, Trustee and Hon Medical Adviser Myalgic Encehalopathy Association (MEA) Obtaining an Ill-Health Pension, Prognosis and...

I am much happier with "sicker" or "iller" some time after straining nerve and muscle (with eroded thresholds). Its always a relief to read it put that way. I am not happy with fatigue or increase in symptoms. Maybe we are stuck with "malaise". There is a factsheet, here, so can a...

Thankyou; so was it a mild phase when I could still get out and about on foot, but inbetween outings I was poleaxed for days? Bit dazed too. Um, no come to think about it - maybe that was the moderate phase and the mild phase was when I could heave myself upstairs like a sack of potatoes, but...

Is PEM what NICE described as a relapse with more marked symptomatology, risking a more or less permanent decline, and liable to follow a symptomatic flare, unless promptly adjusting to manage the flare, but also possible anyway whether or not managing the flare? And is PEM being acutely ill?

yes a new contextual diagram to identify PEM in the mix (to aid recognition) for starters:

Does a malaise qualify as being acutely ill? I describe it as being acutely ill (etc etc etc in detail). Is this correct? It took me a long time to cotton on that "etc etc etc in detail" was not computing, but "acutely ill" might be understood. Except that upon onset I said I am very ill, its...

For which reasons might it become necessary to delay delivery of the Guideline implementation? If I may assume this is what the ME Plan delivers. Eg to make sure its sufficient, contains no risk, consists and is not misleading? Does it actually need revising at this stage? Is there...

I guess a mass boycott of M.E & CFS & LC life coaching would work Is there one in the pipeline, for places where it is still legitimate and cannot be penalised? IF given grounds to boycott the bait, the carrot, when its pie in the sky... And boycott the threat, the stick, when it makes out...

The Mirror newspaper reported the government contradicting its own paediatric research policy, so will someone please tell Professor Danny Altmann who had to report otherwise to an international Keystone Symposium in conference. And tell the Dame conducting the current Long Covid Inquiry. The...

Academic institutions teach and train the teacher-trainers who got their students into such bad habits, and perpetuated it, by forming the concepts and practices of the next generation. Do their employers know what they did? Are their employers versed in the scientific requirements of...

This NHMRC is a beginner and learning on the job. Its Project Team Report explained in their 2025 Scope Survey: one lesson is how to get more uptake-intake (reply), if not through medical Colleges. * more replies from more of those who don’t use 8-page profiling Tools: - eg did not use...

Ah, thankyou. So that is the geography and history. The NHMRC appears to be informative and I appreciate its information. It also has some method to review the evidence, being approached in what looks like a weighty manner. But the College is not rushing to assist. Maybe confounded by the...

This was the initial scoping survey for research and development of Guidelines to include PEM. So far, NHMRC Australia distinctly requires “suggestions” of PEM. It looks like PEM will be a very important factor in this Guideline, but also a stumbling block if there is no definitive consensus...

Surveyed Scope: An Agenda To meet the demand and fill the gap, the Australian Government had tasked its National Health Council - a National Health and Medical Research Council - now tasked to spend $1.1 million developing clinical practitioner Guidelines for M.E and C.F.S and: - by now, also...
