Do they even have those on the NHS for ME patients? Rainbow fart-powered roller skating unicorns are probably easier to find. [SPOILER]
Is this only in regards to a fatigue questionnaire again? Will you be conducting a more probative trial in the future, with controls, blinding,...
They're listed as being at different universities as well, in different parts of the country.
Clinician bias. Research exists partially to correct for such bias, so if "but I see ..." conflicts with "research shows ..." then research wins....

It's not clear which form of CBT you're talking about. The normal form used in biomedical conditions is aimed at coping. The form studied in...

Prior to around 2000 Esther Crawley did biological research. After a break of a year or two with no research, she started doing CF/CFS stuff. As...
It might be a good thing that psychosomatic researcher organizations have been merging. AYME didn't only merge with AfME, but the quack advising...
The high ground is where we're supposed to sit while kicking the bastards in the 'nads, right? :emoji_angel:
It does seem that they have updated their site to cease using "post-exertional stress" and reference the CCC description of PEM without promising...
