P2P: The Question They Will Not Ask

Search title and "xxxxxx."

Editor's Comment: The P2P (Pathways to Prevention) Panel was originally convened to examine case definitions for ME/CFS and to address differences between ME and CFS. The disease that ME/CFS specialists in the US call "CFS" is actually ME. Whereas the condition that most non-specialists (and many researchers) call "CFS" could be almost anything.

Case definitions provide the foundation for diagnosis, research, and treatment, so the question of how the case definitions for CFS and ME differ, and whether researchers and clinicians are talking about the same disease, is an important one.
