THE NICEGUIDELINES BLOG: My response to the medically unexplained nonsense from Professor Moss Morris
http://niceguidelines.blogspot.com/2015/07/my-response-to-medically-unexplained.html
Doctor Speedy and ME in search of medical honesty. Friday, July 10, 2015. My response to the medically unexplained nonsense from Professor Moss Morris. Dear Professor Moss Morris,. As professor Hooper wrote a few years ago when does ignoring evidence become serious professional misconduct? It's clear that the Pinocchio Psychiatrists have crossed that line a long time ago. Please do keep in mind that evidence that something is psychosomatic or all in the mind, because that's basically what you say whe...

THE NICEGUIDELINES BLOG: Evidence that a disease is psychosomatic doesn't exist
http://niceguidelines.blogspot.com/2015/06/evidence-that-disease-is-psychosomatic.html
Doctor Speedy and ME in search of medical honesty. Saturday, June 13, 2015. Evidence that a disease is psychosomatic doesn't exist. Doctors or others who say that a disease is psychosomatic do not have any evidence for that; why not because it doesn't exist. The mere fact that routine testing is normal is not evidence that something is psychosomatic. But many doctors do not understand or realise this. In Parkinson or ALS for example, routine testing is also normal. Venus Williams, the successful American...

Doctor Speedy and ME in search of medical honesty. Thursday, June 4, 2015. When does ignoring evidence by doctors become serious professional misconduct? Professor Hooper, 19 February 2010:.
