I was listening to the song Industrial Disease by Mark Knopfler ("Dire Straits") on my ipod. It appeared on the 1982 album "Love over Gold. It occured to me that "Industrial Disease" is far a better moniker for CFS/ME or CFIDS or CFS/FM/ME.
There is a lot of word play and irony in the song as well some great guitar chops a talking vocal. It's a catchy song. Perhaps the next time I am asked by an aquaintence what it is that I have I might respond with "Industrial Disease".
Facts are facts you know? What I have is certainly industrial or"full strength" and it is a disease. It is a lot more descriptive than Chronic Fatigue Syndrome with Fibromyalgia subset number Five. Although I can pronounce Myalgic Encephalomyelitis it can be hard to spell when I am having a spell.
"Industrial Disease" quickly conjours up the idea that something could be wrong in our enviroment. It's natures way of telling us....something is wrong. (Spirit) Just two words. "Industrial Disease".I wanted to post the lyrics but I did not know if it was proper.
