No, nor would I (if I could walk that far). If I did a comparable amount of work in the swimming pool, I'd develop swollen lymph nodes in my...
Personally, I wasn't diagnosed using any criteria in 1999. I'd been ill since 1976, and a major relapse was the reason for signing up with a GP in...
14,000 – wow!
I think that's quite wise for now, at least in relation to ME. Yes, the possibility of patients developing it should be mentioned, but for those...
'DecodeMe' is used in the subheading. I don't think it's really represented in the article, though.
