I’ve been using bicarb for a while - and my entirely subjective, anecdotal, n=1, conclusion is that I think it helps! :thumbsup::D
That seems a sensible approach. Will do. :)
Oh! Yet that is incorrect info supplied in response to a question, so surely there has to be some way of correcting the record?
Has anyone asked for a correction? If not how would this be done?
My bold. The new guideline is for ME/CFS, not CFS/ME. An important distinction, and an error that should maybe be corrected on Hansard?
It’s a difficult one. If drugs are not the first option, and serious CBT isn’t either, then what is the first option? Do people respond to the...
Interesting that CBT is described as “high intensity psychological intervention”, which seems to clarify that it would have the potential to harm...
I suspect this might actually be a good thing. I think there is a much too hasty dash to medicate depression. Of course in severe situations,...
In terms of “psychosocial factors”, the only usefulness to this might be in putting in place better social help for those in need. (Whether that...
@Esther12 I agree, but only up to a point. Certainly there will be those who have been very badly affected by the pandemic. So the number of...

Fixed that: Conclusions. The findings indicated that it is possible for some people with CFS to remain in work, but less than 10% of those who...
It’s frustrating that these folk take their ideas and use them to malign individuals facing issues that are clearly not just ruminations of the...
That might be part of it. I was in my late 40’s when I got ME, and I had no disbelief from my family. So maybe if I’d got ME before my career,...
Oh! Right! I read it thinking that the bit I quoted was coming from Peter Shaber who I thought was the main speaker at the workshop. Hmmm. Maybe...
Is Katharine Cheston on here? Can she perhaps explain this major misunderstanding to the speaker?
@JemPD Snap!
From the blurb above: I would argue that patients “are shamed” by some professionals, but they don’t necessarily feel a “sense of shame”...
That would tally with my experience. I also suspect that we clear adrenalin slowly, meaning the period of feeling “dangerously okay” is extended....
