Well at least that's one way of getting some research on bedridden people which we can apply to the neglected community in me/Cfs. I've been...
I disagree. I think Nice criteria were an attempt too keep CFS vague once Oxford was being discredited. It's the criteria of choice for Crawley....
Someone just posted this on the ME association Facebook page which I've copied. (Thanks to long-term campaigner Anita Roddam for this find and...
True but they're also strong on the infrastructure, info and advocacy side too but often their posts on Facebook just get a handful of comments, &...
MERUK have had this sort of thing going in some form for some time I think.
