ME/CFS Guidelines from The University of York
Friday 30 March 2007
A British survey of a certain part of the literature has just been just released by The University of York.
While it covers some ground, it appears to be based on cohorts selected with the very loose Oxford and CDC guidelines, and reflects an approach pushing people with ME/CFS towards psychotherapy, graded exercise therapy and cognitive behaviour thereapy as key aids to recovery. This is definitely NOT an approach supported by our Society.
It is a long, long way from the SA and Canadian guidelines, which we endorse and for which we provide downloads. But we link the British articles here on the principle that it is always important to know what you are up against.
We shall overcome…
