I was going to complain about another piece using the 'all in the head' line, but it seems like this is tied up to personal things with his partner who has EDS III:

I witnessed it first hand just last week. A somewhat renowned neurologist told my chronically ill, disabled girlfriend that ME had psychological causes; “somatisation” as it’s known in the medical world. They said that psychotherapy was the best form of treatment. Their words were like a train hitting my girlfriend, who was still in floods of tears days later.

Good to see more coverage of the issue. Maybe it would be good to have some details on why it was some of the protocol deviations were misleading, but I realise lots of journalists aren't going to be able to go into all the details.
