In case its interesting….
I ran across this comment on PACE in Miriam Tucker's Medscape article relative to PACE and SEID (http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/839532 - Dr. WIlliam Wilkie, Feb 17, 2015.)
On a separate note, does anyone know if the U.K. media covered the IOM? I saw something in Daily Mail and Argusreport, and Bob pointed out an article in New Scientist. But I didn't see anything else or anything in SMC. Did I miss it?

"The name change was at least partially due to negative CFS/ME-advocate responses to the findings of the PACE study… The new name appears to be a political maneuver to satisfy patient advocacy groups. It is a dangerous name change because it emphasizes and requires post-exertional malaise, a symptom that undermines application of rigorously scientifically proven effective therapy."
The logic is mind-boggling, especially the part about it being dangerous because it undermines therapy On a separate note, does anyone know if the U.K. media covered the IOM?
