He said he believes all my symptoms are genuine and caused by brain incorrectly reading and sending signals.
He references the neurosymptoms.org websiteDoes he have any evidence for this assertion?
Yes I had nerve conduction and EMG single probe studies to eliminate myasthenia gravis and ms. I’m confused ♀️

I would like to add a caveat to this. CFS or ME that is sub-clinical, that is mild enough you cannot actually be diagnosed, might allow a fair bit of exercise. In patients with mild CFS or ME under weak definitions the same thing might apply. In patients with subclinical ME and complications that increase severity, such as EDS or OI, then there might be patients who can exercise.if you can run 3-5 miles on a treadmill without PEM, likely not CFS.
More interesting to me is the question: what is a non-functional disorder?
Is functional neurological disorder the new “bucket “ diagnosis ?

I'm wondering if there are any studies that show anything physically wrong in body. I'm wondering how much is it possible I'm just psychologically sick.
I’m due to see this neurologist again.....usual nhs follow-up.
Gimme some good comebacks to challenge this load of cobblers !

then this is dishonesty from her part and I dont like it at all.
you may have depression without the symptom of depression
According to the studies I posted, and others I presume, this thing exists.But I know it isnt me, I am the exact opposite.I rarely worry and I dont pay nuch attention to the symptoms and patterns to the point that I miss things that are obviously related.I never realized I experience PEM because it happens after the first 24h for me.But they can't prescribe antidepressants unless you have depression, so you must have depression even though you don't have the symptoms of it.
