    Normative data for the 10-min Lean Test in individuals without Orthostatic Intolerance

    Action for ME (UK) fundraising

    This is Action For ME, one of the two main UK charities, not ME Action. I definitely feel more comfortable donating to AfME than the ME Association these days.

    I can't get archive.ph links to work these days. I'm not sure if the site is down here in the UK or whether it's something in my setup. I use 12ft.io to view these paywalled articles.

    Unequal access to diagnosis of myalgic encephalomyelitis in England, 2025, Ponting and Samms

    [Survey] Have your say on [UK] welfare benefits reform

    The new PIP Daily Living 4-point rule would mean 87% of PIP recipients with standard Daily Living would lose their awards. The figure is 13% for those with enhanced Daily Living. Not to mention these people would likely also lose their UC LCWRA awards.
