I thought this was very good.
Main points:
- They spoke to the Belle & Sebastian guy, Charles Shepherd, Julia Newton
- Managed to get across illness severity through personal anecdotes and comparisons to other serious illnesses
- Talked about how there is no understanding of subtypes
- How the NICE guidelines are felt to be unfit for purpose by patients
- They spoke to David Butcher, the chairman of the Optimum Health Clinic. I'm sure people have opinions on this.
- Some people seem to get better but there seems no method to why, or why many stay ill, and there isn't any approved effective treatment
Edit: meant to mention, I feel like things like this are particularly good because while they may not say anything new to those in the know, they will paint a good picture to those who know nothing about the illness.
And with it being produced by the BBC, I'd be very happy sending this to say, a family member / friend who wanted to know more, as there's a certain level of quality or trustworthiness implied.
