I hope there is a bit of press for this. Obviously not a big story like the NICE shenanigans, but a story nonetheless.
Yes, the BBC story is quite strange, because it doesn't seem to link to a newly published paper. And no other outlet is running with this 'story'....
You might be best seeing a few different GPs in the practice before settling on the least worse! I was once thinking of changing practices and so...
Yes, I noticed the link had been removed. You could always contact the person whose webpage it is, as he is the author of the document.
So the EHRC could have swapped 'ME/CFS' for 'long covid' in their tweet and it would reflect the status quo for ME/CFS...

It is mostly due to workload issues in the case of Nina, but there have been some disagreements. PAG (through Opal) rightly raised the issue that...
Presume it is risk of bias.
This thread is really useful, and I haven't come across it before. The 2019 thread is in the 'General ME/CFS news' forum. This thead is in the...
