I liked that they made a point the PEM is triggered by positive or enjoyable activities as much as any others.

This may have been posted before - not sure - link to a letter sent by ME Research & other major ME UK charities to supermarkets -...

They did stay well apart from.each other in the choir, but they were there for at least 2.5 hours. As we don't understand quite whether the initial dose might predict severity, whether length of initial exposure affects the dose etc. Also it's possible that the person who handed round the...

This is what I find so frustrating with the plethora of "sources" etc out there & no real way judging the quality or accuracy of the information. Great, so now 6 feet may not be enough. We have brought our countries to a standstill, made life extremely difficult and stressful for vast numbers...

Like @Jonathan Edwards says I would go for bleach. Just plain ordinary thin bleach on a food prep surface. I would worry the products you linked to might taint any food prepped on surfaces they were used on. Especially with the strong odour.

I do understand @lunarainbows. I too have been denied a medication that made a huge improvement on my life quality. Even though I had letter from a number of different highly qualified consultants on my records saying I should have it, a new GP used the guidelines and a single letter from some...

Like everyone else I would love to see the guidelines changed, or at least have a warning slapped on them ASAP. However I also see the reasons outlined y @adambeyoncelowe and @Andy why this isn't likely and could cause further problems if due process isn't followed. Years back physicians had a...

I agree, but I can also understand it. In the early days when my condition was milder I would have been keen to focus on efforts to keep me in work. I thought work focussed rehab could only be a good thing. That was before I understood about illness denial and that there comes a point of...

I will say that in my time I have occasionally been behind the scenes in a few reputable food processing plants in the UK. The standards of hygiene are very high as are the consequences legal & financial consequences for a company that doesn't maintain them.

I'm somewhere between @Esther12 and @JemPD in all this. Plus I have to factor in having a husband who has his own ideas. :rolleyes: I really don't want to catch it, but I have no idea what will happen if I do. Allergies aside I'm lucky my lungs are okay. I might have a very different...

No guarantees, but these bread products go through a very automated industrial process. Unlike the posher artisan breads, they don't have much by way of human contact. Apart from ingredients being hoicked into great vats the rest is pretty much automated as far as I know. Including packaging.

This is what the European Food Safety Standards have to say- https://www.efsa.europa.eu/en/news/coronavirus-no-evidence-food-source-or-transmission-route Not terribly specific. Isn't processed meat packaged in a protective environment? By which I mean it's not necessarily just air in the...

i wonder did she hog a delivery slot or go out and buy it herself?

It's all about the belief.....

I know in my field of work assumptions tend to be made because they're convenient - i.e. I want the world to work a certain way so I'll assume it does. Made to test knowledge - we don't quite understand what's happening here so we'll assume x=y and try to break that assumption. If it proves...

Maybe - but only if I can log in to Facebook to get the link for the group. The most infuriating thing is I have wasted sodding hours mucking about with it. To the point the day before yesterday that I overstimulated my brain & then couldn't sleep. Ah well. Hope the timings work out for you...

Facebook - what a ......... Having wrecked my head trying resurrect an account to reach out to a Facebook only help group for my relatives, had my request to join that group bounced because the profile didn't look legit (well it wouldn't, it hadn't been used for years), PM'd an admin, been...

Depending on dimensions extra freezers can make stylish corner tables, especially when draped with a nice piece of fabric (don't cover the back and allow air circulation behind it obviously). Can be hand for putting stuff on - lamps, plants that kind of thing.

Yep. The longer this goes on the harder it is to excuse it as ignorance. This is long past the stage of wilful ignorance even.

That's truly horrible. I'm so sorry you had to endure that. :hug:
