These two caught my attention:
"Cancer is a horrific and cruel disease. So much pain and a slow death. I just do not agree with this woman. These people with supposed CFS (remember when it was called 'yuppie flu'?) should have structure to their day - get up at a set time, go for a walk, rest, eat, walk , or it's a slippery slope. An under active thyroid causes tiredness/exhaustion. She should get hers checked."
"Bravo to the Daily Mail for representing the other side of ME/CFS, i.e. the real one, rather than that scientifically unsupported, economically and politically expedient one that has held sway for so long: that people with ME/CFS are just not trying hard enough to get better and have false illness beliefs. Any journalist willing to look in a little more detail at successive governments' constructive neglect of ME/CFS and its sufferers, and at the self-interested efforts by some of the most influential psychiatrists in our country to place the treatment of ME/CFS firmly inside the orbit of psychiatry, would find compelling evidence of wilfull mismanagement, "sleaze", and downright inhumanity of epic proportions."
