    News about Long Covid including its relationship to ME/CFS 2020 to 2021

    Thank you @Sarah for posting this. Unfortunately I missed seeing it and am only beginning to catch up a bit this evening. Maybe notice of it was posted earlier but if so, I missed it totally. Would be glad of early notification where possible because of overlaps with ME so I can brief my MP and...

    Covid-19 vaccines and vaccinations

    Which vaccine will you get @andypants ? Is there a choice in Norway and what determines which one you may be offered?

    Lipomas, Dercums, Adiposa Dolorosa

    I know a lot of people with lipoedema complain about this and find it extremely difficult to get a referral to an appropriate Consultant. My own GP really didn't want to refer me ( I wasn't grossly overweight but I had the typical weight distribution for lipoedema and it was worsening). It is...

    Currently being announced on BBC news channel that 6 European countries have written to Pfizer/Biotech expressing concern that they have been warned of delays in the delivery of the vaccine. This news is just coming in and the channel said they would be coming back with more information...

    The Cambridge Lectures: Demystifying ME/CFS, March 2020, deferred to January 2021 on Zoom

    I watched the programme live- found it interesting but unfortunately couldn't manage the length of the session. I reached my limit about 1hour 10 mins in and had to leave. By 6pm I am tired and needing to pace rigorously. I imagine the event was primarily for GPs so this may not be an issue for...

    Lipomas, Dercums, Adiposa Dolorosa

    I have only just read the link to the biomarker discovery ( was sidetracked to the Oxford vaccine which was approved the same day) and will tag all those who have contributed to the thread so far @Kitty @yME @Jonathan Edwards[/USER] @Arnie Pye @Simbindi @ukxmrv From the link...

    George Monbiot on ME/CFS, PACE, BPS and Long Covid

    There is an article by George Monbiot in the Guardian today, the lead article of the inside section 'the Journal', entitled " A year on, our leaders still have no plan to control covid." It is what it sounds from the title, a critical overview of the way the Government have handled covid...

    Covid-19 vaccines and vaccinations

    Thank you very much for this @Snow Leopard. It's all quite confusing for me as a non scientist.

    Covid-19 vaccines and vaccinations

    Have they given an efficacy figure for the fulldose- fulldose administered 3 months apart?( Oxford) I had the earlier Oxford figs in my head (62% vs 90%) but do not recall having seen a figure that just may be reliable for the proposed delivery roll out method- 2 full doses up to 3 months...

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

    Did he say which vaccine he was referring to, Pfizer or Oxford?

    Covid-19 vaccines and vaccinations

    At the moment, I am struggling with the decision too, wanting to be vaccinated but with rather a heavy heart because of confusion about the data - figs are changing- and I could change my mind again. I am in group 4 so theoretically (!) should be done by Feb 15th and my GP has told me I will get...

    Resources for help getting food during quarantine and safe handling of food

    One of my remaining pleasures is to read the delivered newspaper, which obviously needs to be done promptly. During the first lockdown we removed and put to one side the outside page which was most unsatisfactory. Didn't know what I was reading about until well into the article. Over the summer...

    Received an email this morning from Book Depository saying Puzzle Solver is back in stock although when I activated the link, it still says it is currently unavailable!

    The Puzzle Solver by Tracie White

    Just checked the Book Depository but it is out of stock. They are quoting a cost of £22.99, whereas I think Amazon was £12.99. Thanks anyway.

    The Puzzle Solver by Tracie White

    Thank you @mango. I have ordered the book via Amazon but delivery isn't until early Feb. Is there any way I could get this in U.K. earlier than that?

    Lipomas, Dercums, Adiposa Dolorosa

    A biomarker discovered for lipoedema at Stanford. Not yet read fully - what a news day! http://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2020/11/biomarker-for-lipedema-discovered.html?fbclid=IwAR33ZTwE7mghsMoNxkwgTiEik8VDyP_rufSkLUCvbfjOFwvOD-zqzmylc7c edit: I have just glanced at some of the earlier...

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

    @Snow Leopard . I can't pretend to understand the stats but am waiting for the UK regulatory results to be published. I presume that more data on Oxford will be released? Will need reading carefully. Link to last article looks interesting.
