"The medical establishment is not merely passively neglectful toward people with ME/CFS. It is actively vindictive: A medical textbook doubles down on misinformation and stigma" by K. Johnstone mecfs.substack.com/p/the-medica... #MEcfs #PwME #CFS #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis #ChronicFatigueSyndrome

The medical establishment is not merely passively neglectful toward people with ME/CFS. It is actively vindictive. A medical textbook doubles down on misinformation and stigma K. Johnstone Oct 09, 2026 An important and widely used medical textbook, Kumar and Clark’s Clinical Medicine has been repeatedly criticized for presenting out-dated and harmful misinformation about ME/CFS. There was a petition asking for the textbook to be updated. Now the new version is out - and it’s worse than ever. ME/CFS is wrongly presented as a psychological illness. Patients living with severe chronic illness are slandered as delusional people who merely ‘believe’ that they are physically ill. The ‘information’ about ME/CFS in the textbook is at this point so far from the current medical and scientific consensus that it can no longer be viewed as merely biased or unbalanced. It’s worse than that. It is prejudiced, malicious, and hateful. The choice to include this misinformation constitutes a deliberate act of harm toward people with ME/CFS. It is slander toward an entire group of seriously ill patients, and I look forward to the day when those responsible are held to account.
