We should thank the British psycho babble propaganda squad for their continued use of British press abuse in which to delight us, so frequently, and with the same tired old message (disease denial).
Thanks to them, we get to read that 'GE' reduces symptoms and that we are fearful of activity.
Of course we are then further disbelieved in society, further mocked, have our social situations (with family) worsened and may even find other doctors read their disinformation and believe it to be true.
I wonder if that is part of their GMC code of conduct? To use the press to present no science evidence, as 'evidence'. I doubt it. Still, their choice.
With endless evidence of disease denial (harmful therapy as beneficial being touted in the press), we can can collect all the newspaper clippings and give these to solicitors to help contact a medical lawyer when we sue for discrimination and damages, as the 'CFS' biomedical research comprehensively shows exercise capacity is reduced, and metabolic dysfunction is in place. Ergo, you cannot exercise your way back to health. Thus, the message is a lie, and the 'beneficial' therapy is a fraudulent claim to make, as no evidence exists to back up the claim!
Foolishly the psych lobby use the SMC and the British press as a launchpad for their extremist views. (Its' extremist to deny a potentially fatal disease, and to deny it outright as perpetuated as form of fear against activity - WTF?) whilst claiming patients are akin to animal rights protesters and it's safer to be in a war zone than be near a CFS sufferer - the inference of the readers of such trash.
Their core tactic is to blame a maligned disenfranchised impoverished group of disabled people (ME CFS patients) using the press, in which to dehumanize them and de-legtimise the patients claims to authentic disease states
Legal teams can now help ME CFS patients, at least those long term severely affected with many 'signs' of illness. So much research has come out in the last decade or so that shows ME CFS patients have many things organically wrong with them, that can be proven with tests. Proof of organic chronic fatigue and cellular damage, if extensively understood, can be obtained.
First step: Obtain your full medical records and get all GP notes, letters, hospital letters, test results and nursing notes if you have been an inpatient. You need to find evidence of repeat disbelief, or down right lies about your personal history (e.g. false accusations of parental abuse, work phobia, exercise phobia) that lead to you being neglected in society, because of the 'story' they concocted against you, due to discrimination and ME/CFS Phobia.
Second step: It's fundamental you have evidence of disinformation written about you, that mirrors disease denial (psych lobby), and then you can show you personally suffered damages, due to a form of pernicious discrimination found within the medical profession against people with ME CFS, due to these dreadful 'articles' that appear in the press and medical journals.
Don't forget, doctors are normal well meaning people. They don't go out to intentionally harm you, it's just that they are highly influenced by sources such as the psych lobby, that claim they are the de-facto place to come for information on ME CFS and are thus 'experts' in the field.
In reality, denying autonomic dysfunction, inflammation and infection makes no one an expert, but it does make them dangerous if the patient actually does have an underlying physical disease.
