Lack of Blogging

Apologies for my lack of blogging and  to those who are waiting for replies via email or the blog.

Primarily this is due to having lost my source of internet, so my access is limited to approximately once a week. This makes it impossible to answer all my emails, never mind researching or writing and blogging.

Thank you to those who wrote asking if I am ok, due to my apparent disappearance, due to lack of blogging.

I am using the time trying to gain some knowledge and relief from me/cfs (Myalgic Encephalopathy or Myalgic Encephalomyelitis /chronic fatigue syndrome). I have had this over the last 4/5 years and I had been reduced to being able to take a couple of hundred steps a day, and carrying for instance approximately 6 watering cans of water a day to water vegetables. Going over this invisible limit then induces brain fog – not being able to think properly, headaches, muscle aches for days and a whole series of other stuff. In rough terms though my condition is very better than many who are bedbound.

The medical profession has proved worse than utterly useless, in fact the supposed treatments they recommend are harmful. They should be ashamed of the way they treat me/cfs sufferers. I was told  I needed sleeping pills, as, if I was fatigued I must not be sleeping properly. This is of course nonsense as it is a physical mitochondrial problem causing fatigue not a sleep cause. It does show how some GPs are either lazy, stupid or indoctrinated by fraudulent research and big pharma. Proper research is almost nil and that recommended by the medical profession and NICE is fraudulent ie the PACE trial, despite estimated 250,000 sufferers in the UK and 2 million in USA.

For any sufferers I recommend these books if you have not found them yet

2017 Jan 25 Amazon Sarah Myhill Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Myalgic Encephalitis: It’s Mitochondria, Not Hypochondria [1]  

The updated version of Myhill’s book this year is a vast update on the first version, and since the fraudulent PACE tests were made to publish their raw data rather than their biased and fraudulent interpretation.

Anyhow I am not bemoaning my plight, as I have had a very lucky life and any suffering I have is nothing compared to victims and survivors of child sexual abuse.

Hopefully there will be some solution to my internet access over the next couple of months and the me/cfs will ease.

I did manage to make a submission on time to the Isle of Man Inquiry into Knottfield and I will blog it here when I have the time and access.

Hopefully more people can start blogging and putting the pieces of the child sexual abuse jigsaw together so that there is no place for the abusers to hide. We will achieve this.
