Funny that no one diagnosed me with a music disorder when I was young, despite spending all my time and money on it and throwing sickies to attend...
That struck me too—I was expecting to see it being put in context with the other findings. When it wasn't, I assumed it must be due to publishing...
Perhaps misunderstood—I thought you meant where she'd made a post but then edited it later. I never see the MEA FB page and had no idea she'd been...
Oh I definitely agree, but I can't see it would be of much practical use for benefit applications, workplace adjustments, or medical care. They...
On FB it's very easy to screenshot the post you're commenting on, and add it to your post as a picture. I've done that before just to make clear...
I wouldn't want to see that either. I just want it to meet the basic criteria for scientific research. It will be interesting to see whether...
These percentages are really unhelpful. Disability doesn't tend to work like this. I used to be in two different groups for physical impairment....
Absolutely! But one of the really important things they've done is to avoid starting from the assumption that a physio can actually help someone...
It's particularly upsetting that in one of the cases Dr Speight describes, the hospital got around the NICE guidelines by denying the patient had...
It sounds like a good start—but one nurse, for a whole country. It's not enough for one city.
I remember reading about that when I was first diagnosed. But that epidemic wasn't really comparable to the sporadic cases of ME we see now, yet I...
I want to see ME specialist nurses trained instead of all these practitioners. Nurses can be as ill-informed, badly trained, and dismissive as...
I think it's little more than an assumption, and it might have arisen from the Royal Free studies. There were suggestions then that the people...
It's good to see that final sentence, which often gets missed out of articles.
I don't get asked about work (too old), but that's a really interesting question about faking or masking. I certainly avoid talking to people...
But if we had indulged in "hysterical projection, catastrophising, conspiracy theories, overt hostility and insults", wouldn't we edit the worst...
Lord Simon, I think, where it's a title in an individual's personal name. Unless he's named Simon of Twittingdonthorpe (or wherever), in which...
I wonder if the difference is that there aren't any treatments or drug trials, and nobody really knows how to go about delivering these services?...
I'm not sure you do. I suspect it's not for you, it's to justify the existence of a service. If it were for you, you wouldn't need a...
I think so, yes, but many people won't meet all of them exactly. There are conditions for which there aren't any specialists, for instance, but...
Separate names with a comma.
