My friendship looks to have ended with one of the friends who suggested the Nurse Practitioner but is quite fine with the other.
The one was out working in their yard today as I happened to pass by at the turn to the city park which has a scenic overlook, so I stopped to visit. It did not end well.
She told me I was wrong for what I did with the Nurse Practitioner because I was going by one study that said that increasing exercise was bad for CFS and you can't go by just one study, they have little value, and for every study you can find another saying the opposite.
That struck me as rather interesting because I emailed both friends and the Nurse Practitioner several studies, articles, following the appointment.
That was 20 days ago and there has been no reply yet from the Nurse Practitioner or the one friend.
Both friends happen to have experience with professional studies and medical documentation.
The one things went badly with today also was a special education teacher for a long time.
The other who accepted the information was also in medical records and medical billing for some time and has been and still is is a county historian and a reporter plus columnist for several local rural newspapers.
Now, back to where the one friend was chastising me today for my developing an attitude "from just one study" the "from just one study" bit is documentably untrue as I have shared several with her, plus other related news and science.
And then there's the nearly 4 decades of personal experience my Dad has with the disease and situation, which has often gone down the same path as the personal experiences documented in the reports I provided.
Actually, I think the root of the problem the one friend has with me has less to do with science and quite a bit more to do with the Nurse Practitioner being her friend.
