What do you like about this subject?  I derive a great deal of enjoyment seeing people succeed with this condition after struggling for soo long.
What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?  I hope to start a national Integrative Research Program for this condition. I want to disseminate the information about how to heal from it and demystify the science around why this occurs. In short I want everyone to have access to the information and resources to beat this condition
Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:  There is no magic bullet. The cure comes from building health.
Something controversial or provocative about this subject  I feel conventional medicine doesn't treat this effectively because they don't understand the cause. A disease model doesn't work. To get better from CFS you need to increase your health. From what I've seen Medicine doesn't know how to do this.
