Professor Malcolm Hooper takes on the Establishment!
Professor Malcolm Hooper is one of a very small number of the fully-abled willing to take on the establishment in the UK with regards to ME.
Here's the letter he wrote to Sir Michael Rawlins: http://www.meactionuk.org.uk/Hooper-signed-letter-to-Rawlins.htm (Rawlins is chairman of the National Institute of Health & Clinical Excellence NICE in the UK)
Here's the formal complaint he sent to Lord Drayson, minister of state with responsibility for the Medical Research Council: http://www.meactionuk.org.uk/magical-medicine.htm
Here's his report on ME: http://www.meactionuk.org.uk/magical-medicine.pdf Read this if you would like to understand what all the fuss is about!
This report will serve as a reference tool for doctors and people with ME for years to come. Thank you, Professor Hooper, for all you've done.
After four years in Rwanda and DR Congo I was diagnosed with myalgic encephalomyelitis in Oct ‘08. Following two years in Malta, I moved to Melbourne, Australia where I found a doctor who diagnosed fructose intolerance and - eventually - Lyme Disease. My health improved, I returned to work, and next week I'm going back to my former life on the Big Island of Hawaii. Take a look at older posts (2004-2008) for stories & photos from Africa.
