I recently saw a new newsletter from Terra Biological entitled Oxaloacetate CFS. I emailed them about using the term CFS. Suggesting that it was outdated, inaccurate, fraught with a history of harm to pwME, and in no small part responsible for the systemic failure of governments, medical institutions, research funding, poor research based on vague criteria, psychologizing, denial of benefits, dismissal and gaslighting of patients for decades. I thought they should replace CFS with ME or at least ME/CFS. I have read many articles over the years spelling out the history of harm done by the CFS nomenclature and its downstream effects on every aspect of the science, medical and social support for pwME. I was asked to provide links for their review, but I am finding that I don’t have the energy to track them down. I was wondering if anybody could point me towards such articles so that I may pass them along?

I’ve been thinking a lot about the ME Association chairman’s snarky opinion letter and this is my response.

Ripley is named after Ellen Ripley from Alien. Aeryn is named after Aeryn Sun from Farscape. Strong, smart, capable ladies all!
