Interesting to read the reviews from his patients/their carers: starts with two rather incongruous statements: " Dr Philip Hammond I trained as a GP and worked as one for 20 years before retraining as an associate specialist in the young people's specialist Chronic Fatigue/ME service at the...

Hmmm don't think that'd help

:thumbsup: But don't most places that have AGMs have voting members; I don't think AfME members have any such rights(?)

that's cheered me up no end

Including 14th March 2018 Exeter at 'Phoenix' :laugh: http://www.drphilhammond.com/ maybe EC will pick up a few tips for her next series of presentations? :yuck:

Could a tweeter maybe ask Phil Hammond why, if they believe ME is not psychological, is his boss EC talking at a Mood disorders seminar?

From me-pedia http://me-pedia.org/wiki/Esther_Crawley: "SMILE was a pilot trial on children with ME/CFS and involved comparing the effects of standard medical treatment (SMC) against that of the Lightning Process & SMC.[4] The initial budget was £164,000 funded by the Linbury Trust and the...

"after 14 long years of rehabilitation and therapy"......she doesn't say what. From the first break to the second "It took me another seven years to muster the strength and financial means to go on a second trip". "....as I became stronger," how? "Before leaving home, I had made sure to...

this concerns me.........another 'miracle cure'?

This is a welcome development: "We have also engaged a range of community stakeholders, including ME/CFS patients, physicians, educators, and community activists, including #MEaction advocate Jen Brea, to participate in our Community Impact Steering Committee. Linda Avey, who is the CEO of the...

The problem is will they now think there is scientific evidence following the SMILE trial? Yet another reason why the trial should never have been allowed to happen.

In their 'medical health professionals' opinion. They stipulate on their report how long; from memory it's 6months, 1 year, 18 months. What they don't tell you (and will probably deny if you ask), is that you can be moved back into the support group from the WRAG and payments are resumed at...
