I suspect the characterisation was always there in the public perception. I see Wessely largely as an opportunist who took advantage of a public...
It's a sensitive subject but I don't think that is a fair comparison. Both in the case of Trans people and that of ME/CFS my impression is that...
Some interesting thoughts @Stuart79 but in my view you cannot do immunology by stringing together these high-level concepts like inflammation or...
Well, if the author knows all about biopychosocial factors and how they influence people's beliefs of being ill and knows the way psychiatry can...
OI is a very common problem anyway. Not necessarily an indication of any disease.
If you do a lot on day one then you are likely to wake up very stiff in the used joints on day two. It is a specific problem of rebound joint...
Maybe I am misreading things but Whitney looks in much better shape than at times in the past. I hope that reflects a genuine increase in wellbeing.
I think the quantitation her is about as valid as a Chalder fatigue score. We have absolutely no understanding of quantitation of neural...
Yes but I am not in a position to give specifics. It is a reality. The recent policy document from Devon and Exeter on care of severe ME/CFS in...
It is a pity that the Royal College of Physicians was not asked to respond. The responses so far fail to confront the deliberate attempt to...
I am pretty sure it was. There seems little reason otherwise to make such an unreasonable rule.
Total IgG is not usually raised in autoimmunity. It can be, in some very specific conditions like Felty's Syndrome and Sjögren's syndrome but...
I think this refers to the version of the 2014 AoA that was posted on the MEA website for several years until this week it was taken down because...
I wouldn't expect total IgG levels to be terribly relevant to any response. And we are expecting a fall over that time frame so not sure it needs...
Brevundimonas spp. have been isolated from multiple environments, including soils [9–21], deep subsea floor sediment [22] activated sludge,[23]...
Pity about the spellchecker.
The 2013 version at Companies House apparently allows for payments to be made to an MEA officer for almost any service, provided by an MEA, as...
The trouble is that the history of these names is very complicated and there are several names, each with a slightly different range of usages. My...
Yes, it's odd because other monoclonals have been given subcutaneously without hyaluronidase. Moreover, there doesn't seem to be any hurry about...
I would ask the patient to describe all aspects of their problems in their own words first and then clarify how they are using words with tailored...
Separate names with a comma.
