There is a conspicuous disconnect between what the clinics describe and what patients say is happening in the worst cases. Perhaps they really do...
He brought it up, but I pointed out the flaws in the trial and that they dropped objective measures (he'd previously agreed that using actometers...
It is, but NICE clarified that doesn't mean they'll be recommended--just that they'll be included in the evidence. Jonathan also pointed out that...
