    UK: The Yellow Card Scheme has been confirmed as the route to report 'adverse incidents' from GET and CBT (or has it?)

    think @Keela Too and @MeSci are right the person writing this is trying to weasel round it and in doing so has been very misleading. However given that MEResearch have now posted about it the Dept of Health will have to clarify. If they clarify that the Yellow Card scheme is not available...

    UK: The Yellow Card Scheme has been confirmed as the route to report 'adverse incidents' from GET and CBT (or has it?)

    absolutely the form isnt properly set up to do it but if people try to use it and contact MHRA with questions/complaints they will have to adapt it. the pressure has forced this change - it is important that the scheme is now used for reports about GET/CBT otherwise it will become another way...

    ME Association: ‘ME Awareness Week 2018’ New Early Day Motion Launched by Carol Monaghan MP

    this is really good dont want to put a dampener but if theres an election as seems increasingly likely that brings the session to a halt and everything will have to pick up again with the new cohort of MPs and we will all be praying very hard that Carol Monaghan gets reelected:eek:

    Dr Nacul to provide care for moderate and severe patients in Suffolk

    I guess you have to start somewhere and better Dr Nacul advising GPs on how to deal with ME patients than some BPS person but really it is like having a top of the range sports car and keeping it in the garage. Hopefully the no prescribing will in practice have to be overturned once the service...

    Do we need a simple ME info website? Thought inspired by an article on a HIV drug.

    @Webdog s approach of challenging popular websites about their ME content to get it updated is a good model for improving the quality of the information available to the public and newly diagnosed people

    Do we need a simple ME info website? Thought inspired by an article on a HIV drug.

    yes Search Engine Optimisation is a challenge when you are up against NHS which will inevitably come at the top You can pay to come at the top of the page but I have no idea what sort of money involved - no doubt a waste of resources. The design of a home page and where information sits on it...

    Charities are missing the point – disability benefit assessments were designed to fail

    Modern day equivalent of the workhouse. Superficially it gives “normal” Society - aka Middle England comfort that some form of safety net exists. In reality it is to make things as hard as possible to access and stay in and scare the shit out of ordinary people so they only use it when...

    UK CFS Patient Rediagnosed with Lyme

    Thanks @duncan the bullseye rashes is the only thing that makes me think about testing for Lyme - I don’t remember feeling ill around the time or in the year following. I noticed you mentioned swollen knees in subsequent posts. I have some pain in muscles and joints but not noticeable swollen...
