An MRI study which detected brainstem dysfunction and altered perceptions of reality in psychs who thought CFS was psychological, is about to be published in the journal "Matthew Hopkins, back from the dead and loving it!"

thanks Min for posting the link to the preview, but i also have to agree with silverblade here. Am getting mighty tired of reading all this juicy stuff only to visit my doctor and be told i am anxious or to see friends and here them whispering behind my back about what a shame it is that i have gone so mad. Its the world we live in and it sucks.
I vote to kidnap my doctor and have a special viweing room to sit him in with a continous video loop of all the thousands of studies that PROVE beyond a doubt that M.E is real and that there are things they could even do for me.
Sorry ive gone of on a strange rant.

It's the money/governments/goverment agencies that are driving the psychobabble, this fight is far, far from over. Our only hope is to fund WPI to keep up the real science.

Sorry about this, but I have put a thread on this too, didn't realise there was already one. In the thread I started, I highlighted the part mentioning astrocytes, and put another study regarding inhibition of astrocytes and d-lactic, if anyone is interested. Sorry again.

Great piece of work - thanks for posting Min.

I just want to apologise for my rant involving kidnapping doctors. I am infact a pacifist and would never do that or want any one else to. My post went very off topic and was just a bit of frustration. Apologies.
