Cochrane have rejected both the S4ME appeals about their inadequate responses to two separate complaints. It surely can't be a coincidence that...
I have today, 29th April 2025, sent the following emails to Cochrane Complaints: _______________________ To Cochrane Complaints: Your email of...
I persuaded my GP practice about 15 years ago that my daughter and I needed a home visit every 6 months from a regular GP to check on our health...
That article reads like a sick joke. What are people with ME/CFS then? Slugs? Why don't we warrant inclusion?
Wallit's prejudices about ME/CFS are likely to mean he is not receptive to changing his approach. Given that there are experts in this field...

That sounds like something that would be very expensive in clinicians' time and home visits, so only able to be done with a very small sample for...
Unfortunately it seems in order to get published in sociology journals you have to use the jargon. Joanne Hunt has written several other...

I've had a quick look through the links and can't find the details of dates and what is happening when during the conference week. All I found...
I question the suggestion that people who are mild to moderate can exercise. It depends what you mean by exercise, but I would think it's pretty...
