I have an Oura 3. The battery life has recently degraded, which is a known issue after 2+ years. I have read that they might replace it for free. Interested to see your HRV data.

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.

Closing tomorrow (Aus time). Can be completed in around 10 mins, apparently.

It's an estimate based on the numbers in England diagnosed with the ICD-10 code G93.3 (Postviral and related fatigue syndromes), which includes ME/CFS, based on analysis of hospital data (not GP records). The study hasn't attempted to disentangle the known problems with misapplication of...

I'm not aware of anything of use in Liverpool (worth traveling 300 miles for).

There seems to be some confusion about whether the 404,000 figure is for the UK or just England. I believe it's for the UK, so this article would need correcting.

Yes, it's good that they've decided to publically challenge funders on this.

I don't think a band-aid stimulant is what we need.

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.

"This is your chance to make your voice heard! NHS Greater Manchester is designing a brand-new integrated service for people with ME/CFS and Long Covid and they want to hear directly from you. This is a real opportunity to influence how care is provided across Greater Manchester - from diagnosis...

I don't know exactly how it works, but pre-prints are not yet typeset in the journal style, so it is common to upload the submission file and separate files for figures, but I'm sure you'd find pre-prints where the figures are inline.
