Fair point @Ravn from what we hear in commentary on the Tour de France road race cycling teams have lots of monitoring data

I managed to drive myself to my booster appointment this pm. Believe it or not it was a Pfizer again so that’s 4/4. Hopefully given I didn’t have anything other than punched arm bit of a headache previously I should be ok. My arm does hurt quite a bit. the session was in a very well...

Wow that’s some determined overlooking

I would think the majority of people living with chronic illness have considerable strengths and it is bizarre that people need to be “encouraged” in order to be able to see that also what is so difficult to understand about patients only going to see GPs about problematic symptoms you don’t go...

Yes @Peter Trewhitt your posts are always pretty useful but this one is top notch and I agree with Trish that the researchers would benefit from reading it.

Shame it doesn’t mention that the request was made because of HRA review.

It’s like so many of these things we’re entreated to do to improve health. Eating kale doing some yoga or as advised by Gerada getting off the bus a stop earlier and walking more, all things that can make a non-ill person a bit fitter. A bit of light meditation can be good if you are a healthy...

Good overall study quality :whistle:

Diagnosis overshadowing I think they call it. In my opinion because I had minor depression diagnosis contributed to a delay of about a decade in ME diagnosis.

What’s the etiquette on researchers writing to peers if they see studies that are replicating something known to risk harm to participants.

Yes I agree There are some potential knock on benefits from the validation of taking part in something like this. As well as giving a connection to others in the same boat from the actual programme. Validation can come from the ability to talk to family friends and if relevant colleagues about...

Activist/campaigner I have no problem with these words. I think this article is ok it makes clear the activists/campaigners include broad selection of MPs researchers.

They don’t even mention it’s 2 people until the last paragraph. Unless they have work in progress that indicates this is going to be shown to apply in larger numbers it seems naive to use such language.

Must be pretty nauseating for counsellors who don’t subscribe to the CBT as panacea group think

I was tempted but I couldn’t access it through the link presumably as I’m not signed up to Reddit, so my default setting of not touching Reddit with a barge pole remains in tact and I won’t bother.
