    So apparently prof. Wyller has stood on the stage at this seminar today during his lecture and talked about Lightning Process as a way out of ME. I just can't believe it...

    Not that I know of. I doubt I know anyone in the audience. Larun will give a talk tomorrow about GET.

    I spotted this picture on Facebook. It is prof. Wyller on the stage. The slide says (hastily translated):


    Thomas (31 years) - about automatic interpretation

    CFS/ME after mononucleosis

    1 1/2 year bed bound in dark room at nursing home

    Recovered after "Lightning process" - and still completely healthy many years later

    "I walk in and out of the hospital for two months (due to mononucleosis). I start consider myself as fragile, and I become very attentive towards my own body..."

    I become a "master" in listening to my body. If I experience that something makes me worse, I get more careful the next time. Everything is only about causes and effects"

    "LP makes me question my conception about cause and effect. It makes me do things, that I previously had thought excessed my limits, without believing or be scared I'll get a reaction. And then I didn't get it either".

    Welcome to Norway! No one should be blinded by a little funding for biomedical research or a prime minister offering a kind of excuse. That doesn’t change the fundamentals. Don’t get the impression that the situation on the other side of the North Sea is good. Except some funding and some scientifically sound work done in Bergen, there is very little to cheer about. There is mainly the categoric activist Wyller and his personal opinions, add LP, health authorities doing very little and some sort of knowledge center that have worked for five years and done more harm than good. Still we somewhat remain absurdly optimistic? At least we’re not Denmark.. And then feeling sorry for all danish patients.

    Sounds like we're not going to get info on the talk, but I thought I'd ask if you heard anything just in case.
