The conference of delusionism at the College of Physicians...

If you are curious about the upcoming CFS Conference at the College of whatever, and you want all the details which famous know it alls about ME will be there, let me help you out a bit. Here’s the line-up of speakers:

Professor CBT talking about I don't know what CFS and ME are.

Professor CBT the 2nd, on what causes malingering and so in psychiatrists....

Professor CBT the 3rd on why collusional delusionism affects psychiatrists when they talk about neurological disorders at a conference at the College of Physicians.

Then there is the approach of denying it all, another one will talk about the highlights in the hair of NICE people, recently acquired to enlighten their friends at the College, then there is the psychiatric approach on how to deny illnesses, there is another professor talking about using CBT and GET to GET someone at the conference the next time who actually knows what ME is, maybe Dr Carruthers or so, yes you are right, that doctor from the Canadian Guidelines who is obviously not there this year as he knows too much about ME and that would be counterproductive.

And then another doctor will talk about what medication is best, to cure delusional psychiatrists....

Oh, and what did Dr Enlander say in his email to the College, no he is not one of the speakers, again, he seems to know a thing or two about ME and that means they don't want him at the conference of delusionism.

"Sir

I think it is absurd for the Royal Society of Medicine to promote a meeting on Myalgic Encephalomyelitis where the predominant thrust is the psychiatric aspect of this physical disease.

There is enough physical evidence over the past fifty years, dating from Melvin Ramsay’s work in 1955, to show that this is a primary physical problem with secondary psychological depression.

I would presume that the august body, R.S.M., would not hold a cancer forum staffed predominately with psychiatrists. The notion that psychiatrists could treat cancer on the thesis that secondary depression in cancer is the cause and therefore the prime treatment modality. Perhaps you see the absurdity.

Please invite clinicians and physicians to speak at your meeting on the medical aspects and medical treatment of M.E., there happens to be a medical conference on this very subject in Cambridge a few days later, some of the clinicians speaking at this meeting may be interested in participating in the R.S.M.

After all, you are a medical and not a psychiatric society."
