    Unexpected symptoms after concussion: Potential links to functional neurological and somatic symptom disorders, 2021, Picon, Perez et al

    “unexpected symptoms” Unexpected by whom? I expect people to have some problems with their bodies following brain trauma. I expect patients to feel quite bad after having their brain matter collide with their skull. I expect that when a hard object impacts the skull it may cause lasting damage...

    How to do things with words Two seminars on the naming of functional (psychogenic, non-epileptic, dissociative, conversion) seizures, 2021,Stone et al

    Oh my goodness. Such dedication to this cause. They will just keep going flinging shit at the wall for as long as it takes won’t they? I favour WDKY or WHDATTY or OKI. No? Plenty more where that came from.

    Podcast: Episode 37: Finding Answers for Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS)

    Overall he did a pretty good job. He does make a sprinkling of mistakes. But more accurate than vast majority of UK newspapers and journal articles out over recent weeks. Since writing that I have forgotten what a couple of these were. “off track for a decade” when he has stated the formal...

    The biology of coronavirus COVID-19 - including research and treatments

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-5916515 I hope that this discovery contributes to better survival chances. However I fear it will be a long long while before it would ever be put to life saving use. It was known by our Northwestern European government that some people were more vulnerable to...

    Benefits outweigh the risks: a consensus statement on the risks of physical activity for people living with long-term conditions, 2021, Reid et al

    I don’t think that that is a concern for anyone promoting this. I doubt that the idea is for most patients to see fully qualified professionals for Physiotherapy. Not in practice. Or if they do, this is likely to be a brief encounter. In a group perhaps. Offer of a couple of photocopy sheets...

    NHS England MUS page updated June 2021

    This is for why. I know in my hurting bones that we must destroy this evil conception. Lest it chase down and consume the children.

    Benefits outweigh the risks: a consensus statement on the risks of physical activity for people living with long-term conditions, 2021, Reid et al

    Yes. It fits us very badly, or well depending on the agenda. I am quite sure this proclamation of guidance is equally unjustified or irrelevant to all the other ‘multiple chronic illnesses’. Patients either have life circumstances economic privilege and required health status to benefit from...

    UK NICE 2021 ME/CFS Guideline, published 29th October - post-publication discussion

    This article is more incisive than anything on offer in UK mainstream press. Where false balance and deference to powerful establishments abounds. In contrast here is a clearer picture of the whole, even translation. The author is very well acquainted with the subject and uses this knowledge to...

    I need a good summary of the problems with mind-body theory

    I agree it is a general wide category of illness as you describe so clearly. That they truly believe in and would likely feel an unpleasant amount of foolishness if they were to allow themselves to realise this is not as sound or solid a theory to base ones professional outlook on as they had...

    United Kingdom: Bath paediatric CFS/Fatigue clinic - Esther Crawley; Phil Hammond

    As we observe PHs ‘retirement’ Tweet. We comprehend. He acts in-line with his aims and values. There is no misstep. No misunderstanding. On his part. Perhaps it hits too hard after everything? We are bruised or broken. We cannot bare to perceive what is set out before us. We cannot watch a...

    Limbic Perfusion Is Reduced in Patients with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS), 2021, Xia Li et al

    I don’t have the physical capacity to read or the education to assess this. So I look forward to all your interpretations. Every time I see one of these I think something solid or another melter? Science moves on so slowly with such inadequate funding. I fear I may have strayed from topic...

    NICE ME/CFS guideline - Stakeholder submissions to the draft and NICE responses - published 29th October 2021 - discussion thread

    We know ground beneath us. We are subject. Our living matter. The intervention, secondarily inappropriate. All life manifest. The intervention primarily, of no utility. An implement not formed to heal. No giving purpose. Not made to restore or revive any living creature. Perhaps perhaps...

    NICE ME/CFS guideline - Stakeholder submissions to the draft and NICE responses - published 29th October 2021 - discussion thread

    I guess having learned how to exploit patients to the detriment of a patients health and advantage of their own careers based largely on a strategy of leveraging collective societal and medical ignorance of such patients biological and political status, they all just felt it was safest not to...

    UK NICE 2021 ME/CFS Guideline, published 29th October - post-publication discussion

    And yet no evidence for PMA or body stepping aiding treatment for these conditions either. All the while more of his victims and potential victims will hear about this absence of evidence through our deliverance from evil.

    A wonderful idea @Hutan. I hope when @Mike Harley has completed this epic physical and logistical challenge such opportunities may be contemplated. Love to Mike & family thank you.

    UK NICE 2021 ME/CFS Guideline, published 29th October - post-publication discussion

    I mean yeah. That’s probably the hope for at least one or two of them. No that will not happen. Not because there is sense or justice in this area. It’s just a bad tactic badly timed too late and badly conceived and badly implemented by them. They will hit us with effective challenge, sooner...
