Re: FIFTEEN M.E./CFS Subgroups/Types ?

It is interesting that Dr Jonathan Kerr identified subgroups in myalgic encephalomyelitis some years ago. The MRC apparently refused him further funding for his research, preferring instead to fund psychiatrists' research into behaviour management of fatigue.
