Yep if you want a PhD and a bit of experience, (and given that the pension is different to that in sectors such as university, public sector) then...
And when I read the 1993 DLA stuff then the household tasks went out the window basically for my whole life whilst work was the last thing, going...
And there is the crux - to say that you have to give up work and aggressively rest (which is what you actually have to do with 'pacing' no matter...
Of course the thing is that it has been easier to hide misdiagnosed people who benefit from GET or whatnot under 'mild' than it is under severe....
And they are talking tosh. Is someone better off over the long-term trying to get a career/money/qualifications at the risk of being sicker vs...
