Julie's story is not just fiction, it is a despicable fraud. Nothing in that resembles the reality of ME/CFS in any way at all.
Apparently Julie's CFS is defined as not being quite fit enough to make it up Mt Everest without oxygen. If Julie has CFS, then so does everybody.
Furthermore, if Julie is in any way representative of the patients selected for the study, then the tiny shift in subjective scores for a small number of patients that the study's authors are crowing about is even more meaningless and pathetic than it first seemed.
