    UK: Priority Setting Partnership: Medically Not Yet Explained Symptoms - 10 top priorities published July 2022

    This is making me fume they are just blatant. And it doesn’t give much faith in James Lind surely they should be insistent on the patient engagement side that’s supposedly what they are there for. wondering if @dave30th would be interested in this latest snake from the MUS hydra head.

    UK: Priority Setting Partnership: Medically Not Yet Explained Symptoms - 10 top priorities published July 2022

    What patient organisations are involved in this? It should of course be a wide range. But if this is the first we’ve heard of it looks like they are attempting to fly under the radar. How did they recruit the patients? the survey needs sharing by ME organisations. People with ME need to...

    so it’s a pyramid/franchise - not Very successful as it’s been going 15 years and only got 15 locations - assuming it’s one ‘technician’ at each location. https://www.rectoryhealthcare.com/join-our-network/

    DecodeME - UK ME/CFS DNA study underway

    @Jaybee00 i echo what @Barry said about PEM. Like his wife I’m at the ‘mild’/moderate borderline. I experience my worst level of PEM as a flare up of flu type symptoms/laryngitis/swollen glands which means I have to spend more time in bed or on the sofa but I’ve never been so ill I couldn’t get...

    Simplytreatment -U.K.

    https://www.simplytreatment.co.uk/treatment-process/ This organisation popped up as a promoted result in a google search I did. their 2 or 4 hour process involving a ‘scan’ is claimed to be a treatment for a shopping list of conditions including ME........ which seems plausible - not I...

    DecodeME - UK ME/CFS DNA study underway

    I don’t think that most patients are that aware of the different criteria - they will accept the diagnosis given by their GP or specialist. It’s only when you get involved in some parts of the online ME community that you become aware of criteria - in the U.K. people will be aware of the NICE...

    United Kingdom: ME/CFS in The Times (including Sean O'Neill)

    Fair point. At least it’s something. I could have been more open to his comments if had had some humility about his own responsibility in the situation. But yes as a chip in that status quo it Is of use. ETA. I suppose change is going to result in similar conversions which we will have to...

    United Kingdom: ME/CFS in The Times (including Sean O'Neill)

    Good grief Jeremy Hunt was Health Secretary between 2012-2018. He can’t seriously be attempting to claim any credit for this research existing. Although if he’s claiming that presumably he’s happy to take responsibility for everything that’s wrong with the status quo in the NHS approach to...
