    Medscape: Commentary - Psychotherapy Is 'The' Biological Treatment

    I think the author needs a straitjacket and a sentence in a psychiatric hospital before he harms anyone.

    Personality and Perfectionism in CFS, 2008, Chalder & Deary

    @arewenearlythereyet I understand the picture and the point you are making, but I really, really, really wish you'd shrink it a bit. I find it painful to look at. :wtf: :yuck:

    Article : Rapid rise in mortality in England and Wales in early 2018 – an investigation is needed

    The Independent reprinted the article from my original post : http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/england-wales-mortality-health-medicine-nhs-death-rate-a8256931.html And there have been some other references to the issue, but (mostly) not in places I would consider particularly high profile ...

    Unrest - reviews and general articles

    I've never had an EEG, that's probably my problem - that plus an imagination failure. Even the one that you've linked to looks like a hairdresser with no medical knowledge has put together a photo that looks "semi-scientific". :bag: ;)

    Unrest - reviews and general articles

    Is there anyone else (apart from me) who thinks this is a very weird picture? It really looks (in parts) as if someone has decided to check the health of Brea's hair.

    Article : Rapid rise in mortality in England and Wales in early 2018 – an investigation is needed

    Yes, infant mortality got a mention in the article : Shortly before Christmas, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) reduced its projections of life expectancy for all people in the UK, rising less rapidly in future resulting in almost a year of life lost by 2041. In many areas of the...

    Unrest - reviews and general articles

    I didn't know there was going to be an Unrest 2. Is there any information available about what it involves?

    Did a Lactate test

    Thanks, Trish. I thought it might be too good to be true - I've had lactate dehydrogenase measured as part of test bundles in the past, but never something called just "lactate".

    Did a Lactate test

    Is it lactate dehydrogenase that you are discussing, or some other form of lactate?

    Book due out: "Doing Harm: The Truth About How Bad Medicine and Lazy Science Leave Women Dismissed, Misdiagnosed, and Sick by Maya Dusenbery"

    A link from the above article took me to this : http://articles.chicagotribune.com/1986-10-29/entertainment/8603210488_1_male-body-male-model-moral The entire article is very short. Sadly it doesn't have any references, so I couldn't find out why little girls were deemed to be morally...

    Neurolinguistic programming (NLP)

    Where did the bit I've put in bold come from? I've already received the stuff from Pulse via email, and I'd like to keep it together with the bit I've put in bold. I posted about the Pulse email on Thursday ...

    MUS: "Medicine has a sexism problem" by Maya Dusenbery

    I used to have an account with Pulse (the online magazine for doctors), from when it was possible to join the site as a non-doctor, and as a result I still get sent emails with information on online courses I could do if I was a doctor. One came today which is relevant to the subject of this...

    Book due out: "Doing Harm: The Truth About How Bad Medicine and Lazy Science Leave Women Dismissed, Misdiagnosed, and Sick by Maya Dusenbery"

    I'm replying to myself - I posted my quote in December. I just had the bill for this come through on email last night. I had completely forgotten I had bought it so long ago and decided it was an accidental purchase. But I was baffled at how I'd managed to do that. So I cancelled it. I'm not...

    Hyperventilation and MUS

    About 8 - 10 years ago I suffered from severe hyperventilation. I was breathing roughly every 1 - 2 seconds. I couldn't hold my breath for more than 2 - 3 seconds. My chest hurt. I was constantly sighing and struggling to get more air into me. My lungs felt over-full, and yet emptying my lungs...

    New research connecting thyroid, insulin production, and mitochondria

    This research is in its early stages and there are still lots of questions surrounding it. Quoting from a post on another forum A thyroid hormone different from T4 and T3 acts as a control of insulin production by affecting the energy producing factories (mitochondria). Like T4 , the hormone...

    From the NHS : OSCAR - Online Support and Clinical Advice Resource

    I noticed the almost complete lack of references. I'm also unclear why the CFS/ME pathway is hidden under Pain Management, with no clues to the fact it is even there. I only posted about this, by the way, because people need to know what others are reading that may be complete rubbish.

    How many hours of sleep a night do you need? - Now with Poll

    I need about 9 - 10 hours to get a day I consider one of my best days. I very, very rarely manage this though. And when I do succeed in getting 9 - 10 hours I find it hard to sleep for the next few nights. But it is worth it to have one of my best days very occasionally.

    From the NHS : OSCAR - Online Support and Clinical Advice Resource

    I was just browsing this site today : https://my-oscar.nhs.uk/ And I clicked on the link for advice on Pain Management. This, unexpectedly, then leads to the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS/ME) Care Pathway...
