Agree, but I think it's because they're a hybrid between minutes (where only questions and decisions are noted, usually with one paragraph for...
It's not impossible to find it. It's more difficult in some cases than others, but the main problem seems to be that too many doctors and...
Just to play devil's advocate for a minute – I can see a theoretical benefit, if the two did turn out to be the same. New researchers and new...
Me too – and actually, I think the statement about fatigue not being the cardinal symptom per se comes from ME patients. I've heard numerous...
It is deeply chilling to look back on the calculated cruelty inflicted on WWI soldiers when society decided it couldn't afford for so many to be...
'Not Yet Diagnosed, Nervous'. Originally used as a code by doctors to describe symptoms of shellshock. Edit: in a pejorative way. If there were...
Thank you – it reads well (as did the first version, to my eyes anyway). Haven't the brain function to go into any depth at the moment, but I'd...
Our council's rents do vary a bit, but it hasn't gone down the fixed-term tenancies route at all. They're either introductory (first 12 months) or...
How interesting – I guess it depends where you live to some extent? I was a new tenant when I first moved in, but everyone is automatically...
Hear, bloody hear! I only got my social home because I'm disabled and over 55; had I not been, I'd have had to wait up to 10 years instead of 15...
If HB were always paid promptly and direct to landlords, there'd be far fewer problems with arrears. As for trashing the place: this will always...

It's about bloody time – although I'm not convinced it will make much difference, as it'd be easy for landlords and lettings agents to ensure...
Have just remembered – :banghead:! – that my local MP has been appointed the shadow minister for health and social care. He has a good record for...
I don't recall seeing anything like this, but it hasn't really been my experience. After minor surgeries, I always have to insist I came back for...
I wonder if clothing and kit whilst on active duty might also be a factor? If a soldier goes outdoors in a conflict zone, his/her skin tends to be...
The fact that they're saying they'll change people's names suggests this is probably the case. If they wanted them for research purposes, it'd...
Same here; I'm not even sure what triggered my ME, but 'progressive accumulation of dysfunction' sums it up perfectly. Mine took many months too.
Good! Judging by the number of articles posted on Facebook, there's been enough publicity in the mainstream media to have attracted the attention...
I get this when in severe PEM. I was worried when it first started, so I mentioned it to my GP; he said that in meningitis, there are usually...
