I signed into Amazon to up rate the existing reviews, and ended up adding my own:
An excellent review.
Very much my experience too. My relapses can be associated either with single episodes of over exertion, where I feel it is easier to attribute a...
A balanced piece by @Valerie Eliot Smith and I hope the ME organisations can produce a collective or at least a coordinated response.
At least even if Said Javid moves one sooner rather than later at least he has stated his position very publicly and that is on the record. If...
I had heard of this idea some time ago, and it is not necessarily as irrational as it might first sound. If you think of depression, particularly...
Perez was also involved in a series of articles (discussed in threads here) describing current practice/good practice in treating FND in relation...

A fascinating avenue of research: a possibility of answering the hypotheses/speculation that some conditions are the result of chronic viral...

Though there is no guarantee that the BPS oriented will recognise themselves in the criticism. For example such as Prof Crawley say they...
Every country needs an @Wyva or two.
Often the DWP do not send any representative to the PIP tribunal hearings just submitting the written reports from the previous stages. It does...
I think Charles Shepherd and the MEA were involved in discussions with the DWP and their contracted assessor companies about information and staff...
