Pretty good, especially for the BBC, though PEM would have been good to mention - but not bad. I wonder what the SMC's take on it will be. MS...
I'm trying understand the inclusion criteria. Are they saying that if you have had glandular fever (infectious mononucleosis) in the past then...
[My bold] Does this mean some participants might not have been diagnosed with ME/CFS? If so, what are the implications?

I'm afraid I'm just p'd off with my Tory-toe-the-line-do-what's-best-for-my-career-prospects MP. I briefly emailed him asking for him to attend...
