Oh, this is kinda of maybe off topic (but it is about Goldfield), but I just have to remind you all that his Mum is Noosha Fox of Fox. Here's one of her hits - Single Bed.

And it still leaves me fuming, angry, pissed off, etc etc etc. It reads like an attack on all patient advocates rather than a clear report on the (bloody useless) report from the HRA.

Ah, so NICE is as usual taking the cheapest option. Don't bother testing further if the first test comes back negative. Oh what a surprise. :rolleyes: Thank you @duncan for your clarification. :) From fuming ladycatlover Grrr grrr grrrr angry argghh...

Well, it's a bit like the British Medical Journal, but Scottish. ;) Back then it wasn't paywalled, or at least the Lyme article wasn't. Or maybe I've just lost my capability of finding articles - not unlikely. :cry:

I feel that this article should be open access anyway. BMJ journalist attacks "activists" but we can't see it as patients (activists or not) because we can't afford £23 for one day's access. Does anyone know if there's a Sci-hub link? I don't know how to search for one. I'm getting ANGRY! And...

Surely this is wrong from their (?)press release? Shouldn't that read "If the ELISA is negative..."? I thought if it was positive that meant patient had Lyme. Or am I misunderstanding something?

They're a bit late to the party! I "diagnosed" from the rash (and I'm not a doctor) a friend 10-15 years ago on the basis of a paper I read in the Scottish Medical Journal (article now behind a pay wall, wasn't then luckily!). GP of friend accepted that as sufficient evidence (the paper) and...

Thanks @Russell Fleming. I must have blanked that out as I simply can't manage to listen to podcasts. :rolleyes: There's just something about them that sort of sets my teeth on edge. Maybe it's trying to take something in audibly is more difficult for me than print as you can take your own time...

Thanks for the smile! :rofl: :rolleyes:

What? You don't watch Endeavour, Lewis and Morse? ;) I like Vera too, husband is a bit off about the latest series. Says he thinks it's a bit more of the same. I don't mind that. I can't help feeling that TV therapy might be a lot better than CBT etc. Not curative of course, but...

@Wonko I like your "treatment" of Deep Space Nine! :) When I was first ill the crew of Next Generation were my constant friends. ;) I think sometimes TV can be quite helpful for bed-bound and sick people. Unlike most of the carp in the book (which I have actually read) described in this...

Very sorry to hear that @rvallee. :cry: Must have been really scary. :eek: I hope you have secure place to live now. :hug:

This book has been discussed before here: https://www.s4me.info/threads/review-cfs-book-by-nick-duerden.7021/ What I wonder about is why The Telegraph might suddenly produce a book review so long after the book was published. You purchased this item on 25 March 2018. So it's hardly a new...

Thanks ever so much Tom! :) :trophy@

This link requires me to do more stuff to my computer than I'm happy doing. And to make an account with mediafire. I'm not happy to use it.

Working in a medical lab is very different to being a doctor, involving completely different training. Believe me, I know, I used to be a Med Lab Tech way back when (60s! :eek:), then for 4 years before I got ill I was a Cytogenetics Tech. It really irks me when they show stuff about NHS on...

I think it's this: https://listserv.nodak.edu/cgi-bin/wa.exe?A2=ind0405c&L=CO-CURE&P=2232

Well you did get quoted, along with Bob. So your input was important @Tom Kindlon. :trophy@

http://www.universitytimes.ie/2019/02/an-unhealthy-mind-can-lead-to-an-unhealthy-brain-lets-not-forget-that/ :eek: :rolleyes: :jawdrop: @Tom Kindlon, seeing as "The University Times is Ireland’s largest student newspaper" might this be of interest to you? And other Advocates from Eire.

https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/mindfulness-in-frantic-world/201902/mindfulness-could-be-powerful-painkiller Article doesn't mention CFS so far as I can see - just pain, mainly women. Given IAPT in UK (and MUS etc stuff) I thought this might be of interest.
