Might MCS Be Something Else as Critics Claim ?
uMCS not new or unique in English or French medical literature.
uAt least 136 similar syndromes “Discovered” before & since.
uFew acknowledge any relation to any others, past or current.
uFew propose any specific cause, etiology, biomarker or cure.
uMost names never widely adopted or eventually abandoned.
uBut some are still in use and many MCS cases are still being diagnosed by one or more of them depending on the doctor.
uHistory reveals both consistency of underlying syndrome and great inconsistency of evolving medical awareness, proving doctors rarely ever discover any NEW disorders, just ones
they forgot, were never taught or did not bother to look up !
