Transcript for interview on ABC Radio about CFS

Sat, 25/10/2008 - 11:40pm — Maribel

This was on ABC Radio in June last year. It has some interesting guests; two involved in some research at the time; stuff to do with the genetic and cellular aspects of CFS. Some of it sounds promising.

It's also interesting cos one of the guests is a psychologist with CFS and she talks about her personal experiences. Some of the stuff one of the other guys says towards the end of the interview I don't care for much, but there is some otherwise worthwhile reading here.

Thanks Maribel. I have actually been trying to get an appointment with Prof Lloyd to no avail. Has anyone else been fortunate enough to see him?

Glad you guys liked it, it

Glad you guys liked it, it is a great interview. It looks like I misunderstood the end part of it the first time though, I thought they were saying it is all in the mind, but they weren't! Puzzled

I'm happy with my specialist, but after reading this interview I would looooove to see Prof Lloyd too!

Professor Lloyd

Hey everyone;

I noticed Maribel and Marina (and probably a lot of other people too) want to get an appointment to see Prof. Lloyd. I've been seeing him since 2002 and now I just email him. I do have another referral to see him since it has been a year but I haven't rung up for an appt. For me to see him it is an all day exercise. I have written about finding doctors in Sydney on another thread here http://www.me-cfs.org.au/node/325
My reply is the last post. If anyone wants anymore info, let me know.
