I do apologise for the fact that this will mean extra costs for overseas orders but we are just a small group of M.E. sufferers in a small county in England doing what we can and are, as yet, not very sophisticated when it comes to international mail order! I SAY AGAIN, THOSE ORDERING OUTSIDE OF THE UK SHOULD BE AWARE OF THE TECHNICAL " PAL " COMPATIBILITY ISSUES outlined above and which are your responsibility to understand. CREDIT/DEBIT CARD ORDERS CANNOT BE TAKEN AT PRESENT. We are currently looking into such matters but this will take some time and can make no promises as yet! The possibility of using a third party to facilitate such card ordering is also being explored. Note: the object of this whole exercise is to get the word out so if anyone in any country has the means of copying DVDs in locally compatible formats and making them available by credit-card mail order then please do so. ....Just remember that this DVD/film is open source and that there are no exclusive sales rights to be had. NOTE:- FOR ALL ORDERS (UK & OVERSEAS): The DVD is a " DVD-R " Format, so if you want to play it on your computer check that you don't have one of those restrictive DVD drives which will only play the DVD+ Format. ...Ever wished that life was more simple?! That said... * Ever wanted a cutting-edge film of a leading medical scientist fully au fait with the dirty business of M.E.politics and the somatisation lobby? A film in which a noted Professor of Medical Chemistry systematically tears apart the Wessely-School falsehoods, presents undeniable evidence of organic biomedical disease in M.E. and unequivocally fights for justice for sufferers of ICD-10-G93.3? A film which is not only stacked with scientific erudition and highly useful references but which captures a charming man of integrity & stature and which is highly watchable? Yes?! Well it is now here in the form of an interactive DVD (DVD-R format) with PROFESSOR MALCOLM HOOPER available at cost price from the M.E. SUPPORT - NORFOLK (UK) group: There is no copyright on this film/DVD, it is a non-profit gift to the M.E. community from Professor Malcolm Hooper & M.E. Support - Norfolk (UK). It Also comes with the kind reproduction of brain-scan images courtesy of Dr Byron Hyde and the Nightingale Research Foundation.THIS DVD IS QUITE SIMPLY A MUST HAVE TOOL in our struggle for justice. PLEASE GET IT, COPY IT and DISTRIBUTE IT WIDELY. This film is perfect for modern attention spans and for busy people who do not have the time or inclination to read. It's all in here, the research, the politics, the WHO listing, the Canadian Criteria and, above all, the call to M.E. sufferers to get organised and resist the politically-driven psychologising CBT/GET mistreatment juggernaut. EVERY M.E. SUFFERER SHOULD SEE THIS FILM AND, IF THEY DO, IT WILL HELP WAKE UP A SLEEPING ARMY OF ACTIVISTS. PLEASE GET THIS DVD from anywhere you can, SHOW IT, COPY IT FREELY and GIVE IT TO AS MANY M.E. SUFFERERS, DOCTORS, POLITICIANS, JOURNALISTS & LAWYERS AS YOU CAN POSSIBLY AFFORD TO. DVDs are the new format and, unlike videotapes which are being phased out, are cheap to copy, perfect every time and less expensive to send by mail. With DVDs you can properly freeze-frame, zoom in and fully examine slides and images at your leisure. DVDs have interactive menus and this one COMES WITH A FULLY INTERACTIVE KEY CLIPS INDEX. Not got a DVD player yet? Then get one (!), they're dirt cheap at your local supermarket (just £25 at ASDA/WalMart). Better still, buy a DVD-Burner for your personal computer and knock out copies to send to everyone. You could do this as a group to share costs but DVD-Burners are now very cheap and are obtainable for under £50 on the web etc. If all else fails you can pay a company to do copies for you - it's not as expensive as you might think! Remember, we are fighting a well-organised political lobby and we have to become like them if we are to beat them. Science is on our side but that is not enough, we have to use all the lobbying techniques we can and get the truth out to those who matter. Remember, Doctors, Politicians etc are busy people, saturated with information overload. If we are to reach them with our message then that message has to be straight to the point and in an easily digestible form. MALCOLM HOOPER SUPER-HERO... With great expertees Professor Hooper clearly spells out research revealing deep brain structure damage, biochemical, neuro-immune deficit and even genetic changes in M.E. patients - all of which absolutely demolish the deceitful psycho-social models of M.E. and their attendant CBT/GET 'treatments'. The latter of which Professor Hooper shows is a waste of time and money and for which medical professionals may well be sued in the courts. Unfortunately such psychologising treatments are where the money is going in the UK and Professor Hooper states quite categorically that such money has in fact compromised certain M.E. groups claiming to represent M.E. sufferers. Such trends and mistreatment should not be accepted by the M.E. community and we are urged to muster the nerve to fight for justice and to get organised. The tools we have to fight this injustice are science, the WHO listing and the Canadian Criteria which we should use to the full. Crucially, we should be aware that disease definitions are critical in our fight and we should emphatically NOT get taken in with repeated deceptions in this area or get sucked into using the term 'OPATHY' which damages our cause. Notions of EITHER viral/bacterial OR chemical causation are overcome with research showing that BOTH bugs and environmental chemicals alike open up the blood-brain-barrier. These are allowing neurotoxic damage to occur with additional poisoning coming from wheat and dairy rich diets via a 'leaky gut' process. A whole prolonged physical dysfunction then being set in place where complex molecular & immune responses cause physical damage to the sufferer. Professor Hooper clearly shows that biomedical diagnostic testing is not only possible but should be done as a matter of course and that whilst there is no cure as yet, intelligent nutritional and other interventions can make a significant difference to a patient's life. Similarities between M.E. and other illnesses are shown but it is also clearly spelled out that M.E. is a unique biomedical disease in its own right with its own aetiology. Professor Hooper was chief scientific advisor to the gulf war veterans and played a major role in defeating the Wessely-School psychobabble used against GWS patients. He was also a long standing friend of the late and great M.E. researcher Dr - who Professor Hooper describes as an " M.E. Super Hero " . Given the outstanding work that he himself has done, and is doing, for M.E. sufferers, I would like to hereby nominate Professor Hooper for the same title of 'M.E. Super Hero " . This is certainly how he is regarded by us in Norfolk and, I believe, by anyone who views the DVD, takes an interest in his work and cares about justice for M.E. sufferers. I therefore repeat, please, please, please, GET THE DVD, COPY IT FREELY and GIVE IT TO AS MANY M.E. SUFFERERS, DOCTORS, POLITICIANS, JOURNALISTS & LAWYERS AS YOU CAN POSSIBLY AFFORD TO. It is available now at cost price from M.E. Support - Norfolk (uk) but note: *WE CAN ONLY ACCEPT PAYMENT BY CHEQUE IN UK POUNDS STERLING (£) AND ORDERERS (ESPECIALLY Kev Short.Thu, April 21st, 2005. 10:23 am You are welcome to redistribute or reprint documents from this website without seeking our permission provided: 1) you do not abbreviate, add to, or change the text in any way; 2) the authorship information is retained; and 3) www.theoneclickgroup.co.uk is credited as the source.
