Eg I see this comment on Reddit "
"ME is the inappropriate name, it suggest a cause of the disease nobody has yet to prove or even make likely, and indeed there have been several other names around the globe (and still are).
Chronic fatigue syndrome is an appropriate name as it simply describes the symptoms. Which is the only thing we know. The Newsweek article when it came out called it Yuppie flu, that is another option if you feel CFS isn't good enough.
Describing syndromes in a way which makes it sound as if they have a specific pathology is dishonest, and it does a disservice to those affected by it."
Don't have energy to reply effectively to this today!
