This is just a short note in response to the probability that GET is going to be dropped from the NICE guidelines, along with that particular form...
I thought it was us men who were women's troubles.
I've been thinking over the years of a better way of describing our energy envelope, because none of them tie in with being able to push through...
I think we are missing the key symptom of ME: the ability to produce weird, inexplicable symptoms at almost random occasions, with just enough of...
If physical or mental function set up cognitive payback, that would explain why I can't really work out what my answers should be. I really don't...
Ah, the old man gets repetitive, and is reminded gently by Trish! How on earth is anyone going to measure me going senile when I am already this...
To me, fatigue kicks in when your energy/performance level starts to drop, and in the cognitive dissonance test that I was trying out, I guess...
I can't suggest anything, but I have been trying to get the NIH categorical spending webpage up for some time now, but there's always a message...
The problem as far as I am concerned with all of the scales that I have come across is that they depend on a patient giving grades to the amount...
To be honest, I wasn't particularly interested whether the limitations were due to ME or a combination of factors. This is what I had in mind,...
Now that's an interesting alternative. I suppose I would previously have been 9/10, whereas now I am more 7/8. Notice that, as with most people, I...
I think that many of you have strayed quite a long way from the original concept, and in doing so, have made it much more difficult. It wasn't...
Oh no, it couldn't be that finely scaled. It would only go from 0 to 20, and a chunk of that would be "healthy". I think Trish was talking longer...
What exact phrasing then would you suggest at the start of the questionnaire? Aren't the scales used at the moment the same? Even biomedical...
I was thinking of it being a useful, broad measure for comparing a patient's progress over time, or for comparing patients with each other. A...
So make me a suggestion, and feel free to change the list. I'm a happypotamus when it comes to criticism. I've got a thick hide, and remain...
I like your post, but on this one aspect we disagree. If you tier the activities, you automatically inform the patient that they are tiered and...
I've been studying the sf-36 physical functioning questionnaire and the Chalder fatigue scale for some time now, and am convinced that they are...
Thanks @MSEsperanza . It's on the backburner at the moment. I guess I was thinking of the original clan way back in the eighties, but your point...
I think it would be fair to say, looking at my calculation and Trish's, than any incidence rate per year above 0.01% would necessitate high...
