Re: 13-year-old attempted suicide by ME courses-response to Jane

Jane,

I think what you're describing is an adrenal rush. Then us sickies REALLY feel

the crash. We don't have enough energy to lift a car, but we do feel " normal "

while the rush is on. Damn that crash.

> Hi all,

> Made me just livid when I read this and what it implies re. the so-called

'treatment' with the 100% cure rate. HAH! All I can think of is .. it is both

subterfuge and bulls---. The other thing which comes to mind is .. that if it

sounds too good to be true, it usually is. 100% cure rate INDEED! There was

(still is?) a widely quoted, published doctor whom I think very little of

because of his claims, treatments and what he charges. He is -or was- quoted on

this site from time to time, so I do not care to get into it with anyone. I've

always found his claims to be about the same although he never went so over the

top as to recommend such ruinous treatment. Many patients are not even

physically capable of exercise! Or we o through stages where we are not. I am

like Steve; I get very ill when I over do things, so I just need to be careful,

do the best I can which is damn hard at times. Oddly enough when there have been

'emergency' situations I suddenly had the same old energy I had when I was

healthy and did not notice if I had symptoms. (This was when my dad was dying).

Afterwards I got sick with a vengence. I knew this was coming, but it was .. a

strange experience. A friend who has MS also has experienced the same

phenomonon; sort of happens during a crisis.

> I just cannot imagine putting a sick child through such a tortuous treatment!

It is almost as if it was some sort of sick experiment;
