I’m not sure the mechanisms exist to do that though. Or that medics would respond well to attempts to do such things. There may be advice from NHS England and if there is strong evidence this may be supported by guidance from NICE… But it relies upon different people in different places making...

It would depend entirely upon the GP. Or local integrated care boards. What NICE advises, if people follow that advice and what services the boards think they need and if they commission them… (Sorry I’m probably half answering your other post but they seem very linked in terms of NHS structures)

What would happen? Meetings How would it be rolled out? Unevenly I don’t mean that as a pessimistic view but that is usually how things go, even in the best cases. The covid vaccine example you gave shows what is possible, but it involves bypassing a lot of things so is unlikely to happen. And...

The lesson seems to be, don’t buy anything like this from any online marketplaces. Regulations in the UK and EU are generally quite good for medicines, food, etc. but we seem to let some companies ignore them.

Generous offer by the company and by you @ChronicallyOverIt thank you! Would love to see someone who can make use of this take you both up on it.

Great work and thanks again @Joan Crawford Good luck for the ride this weekend. Could be a bit of wind around, hopefully enough and in the right direction to give you a helping hand rather than cause any trouble.

Great, glad that helped @Jonathan Edwards Look forward to hearing more about the module and how your efforts at addressing any shortcomings go

I’m sceptical of the value of this commentary. It’s not from someone without their own conflicts of interest. It’s a website of a Chiropractor and Nutritionist writing on a website they run as a business to make money out of patients by claiming they can help them. It’s full of the buzzwords and...

I suppose the other aspect is what you’re into and perhaps where the interest from others is? Ultras and backyards seem to have a bit of a cult following and quite a social and community aspect too which may be something you/we could tap into? There seems to be no shortage of events around the...

To be fair that is a problem with those doing the commissioning of services not the clinics (the clinics have a whole load of other problems). Getting the Integrated Care Boards to both understand the needs of the populations they serve and what services are appropriate may be the best route...

Same. I have a lot of v unpleasant cardiovascular symptoms when bad. And have tried HR, BP and HRV to monitor. There’s something here I’m sure, but am not sure of the reliability of these measurements to demonstrate the relationship or of his methodology or the estimation formulas used. They do...

Probably my fault by linking to the Wikipedia page for Baroness Scott of Bybrook rather than Baroness Scott of Needham Market. Thanks for the correction @Suffolkres

Me either, Wikipedia has write ups for them both Baroness Scott (of Needham Market) Lord Bethell

Sorry you’ve been through this experience @CamTi it is sadly not at all uncommon

As far as I can tell it’s an odd organisation, that seems to be funded by but also promotes small businesses and has some sort of magazine. Their website is an odd one too https://prestigeawards.co.uk/ Part of this media company https://fenicemedia.com/ So I’m not sure I’d call them an awarding...

It looks to me to be an okay study of somehing. I just don’t think that something is necessarily PEM. It may be PEM if you can be sure what everyone is describing is PEM. But by the nature of the design we do not know that it is. Given people also use these surveys to distinguish PEM and...

I guess that’s a pattern we commonly see with many issues which face disbelief. First people have to admit there’s a problem. Then they have to admit they don’t understand the problem. Only then can people start to understand it.
