Just to update on my Pfizer booster three days ago: I've had no symptoms, thankfully, it's been very like getting the annual 'flu jab.
I don't know if it helps, but my ECGs have all been done by nurses, so I don't always get subjected to the full-on health check from the GP! My...
I had my Pfizer booster two days ago. No sign of the lovely energy boost I got from my first AZ dose, but so far nothing negative either. I’d...
My parents said I was never the same again after measles. Although I didn’t have all the symptoms of ME until I was 17, I very clearly remember...
I might try and step aside a bit, and wonder why they're taking this line. One of the difficulties with pre-existing conditions is that insurers...
Interesting, thank you. Will take me a while to read them properly, but in the meantime I do wish somebody would offer me a health passport! I...
Yep.
I guess it's potentially different for every individual? ME's not that uncommon, so it wouldn't be surprising if people had that diagnosis in...
Fightback used to post quite a few stories about claimants being rung up to see if they would accept this or that award (lower than they were...
Proper length of wet haddock, isn't it! :laugh:

I suspect it isn't, if there's no external ethics approval and participants have to pay for the treatment. Research projects take a strict...
I could really have done with someone advising me that I should be making plans to withdraw from work a lot sooner than I did! Not that this is...
Indeed. It's one of the short surveys that could usefully be done with the DecodeME cohort eventually, to get a bigger and possibly more...
You must forgive us for a bit of a pile-on in response to some of the apheresis stuff, @SNT Gatchaman! Some of us have just been watching similar...
By behaving like scientists? This must have happened thousands of times, but until you do a blinded trial, it's completely meaningless. It's not...
I think the problem there is, useful to whom! Perhaps one of the helpful pressures might be patient involvement in setting standards for trials....
It's really difficult to see people with PASC going through exactly the same exploitation as desperate ME patients in the past (or even fairly...
It often is. Capital purchases are usually treated differently to revenue costs such as overheads, staff, and consumables, and are accounted for...
Separate names with a comma.
