The book is OK. It is an easy read and does include relevant info/descriptions.
It did annoy my daughter, due to refs to being ultra busy, burnout style, but keeping going as long as she could.....
I suspect that some of these boards, the CDC and NICE are reluctant to publicise, with a loud fanfare, that these treatments are no longer recommended. due to potential harms as it could expose them to lawsuits and other comeback.
These comments are from 1999. Some clinicians and researchers have changed their views as they have seen more PwME and have kept up with Biomedical research.
The BPS brigade are stuck in the last decade in their views.
Thanks for picking this up @Sly Saint.
So why is care for ME under the services for mental health and learning disability?

My daughter has in the last couple of weeks had twins round. She has not seen them for a few years, but they were lovely and understanding and are planning to see each other at least monthly.

Gary you did an amazing job and got the message re the severity and debility of the illness over brilliantly. Congrats on getting the one hour slot and some great guests.
I think Julia N has done really important biomedical research and stuck with the ME community valiantly.
There are many...
I have enormous respect for Julia Newton. She is one of the few (?only) people who has managed to get any research grants for biomedical research into ME. She has worked strenuously in this field for years despite the stigma she gets from others who work in the fatigue and probably other...
Are you a member of the FB group Mums of kids with ME. There are lots of people with experience of education problems etc. Also, some of them may have PR contacts.
What about the Scottish MPs, including Carol Monaghan? There is also the list of MPs who went to the Unrest viewing at Speaker's...
I think it will be applied to all regional ME groups FB or who meet up in person. One group who recently applied to join were told they could not because they were regional. It seems that N Ireland and Wales are the exceptions.
It is only reps from stakeholder groups who can attend the scoping...
