I got an email from the Fibromyalgia Society this week, urging me to write something about this distressing disease. I did a modicum of research and discovered that it is another one of those imaginary afflictions claimed by malingering mentals. I may be wrong about this, Im simply reading between the lines of the various studies into the condition.
As a gift to medical science I thought we should compile a list of things a compendium, if you like which are definitely illnesses or diseases and things which arent, so as to help the doctors. Let me begin but please join in:
Things Which Definitely Are Illnesses or Diseases
Throat cancer
Scabies
Measles
Heart attacks and related stuff
Strokes
Diabetes
Most other sorts of cancer
Emphysema
Tubercolosis the Great Leveller!
Scrotrot
Hepatitis contracted when administering law and order in a colony
Yellow Fever
Gout
The shits
Being blind
Things Which Definitely Are Not Illnesses or Diseases
Fibromyalgia
Addiction to alcohol
Addiction to drugs
Obesity
Being a bit odd
M.E.
Hepatitis contracted when behaving in an inappropriate manner
Stress
Wearing spectacles
Addiction to sex
The owners of the Spectator are the Barclay Brothers
