I was just about to post the following... It's the hijack that bothers me. If doctors recognise a cluster of signs and symptoms for which a...
This also holds if patients are given a made-up diagnosis. And no level of confidence or authority will negate its made-up-ness.
A reminder that if anyone in GB is struggling for general-purpose photo ID, a provisional driving licence is the cheapest at £34 if you apply...
The trouble with that will be the fairy folk, who swap our fuel tank every night for a different one. We wake up with no idea whether we've got a...
I don't think there is. It reminds me a lot of driving a wheelchair-adapted van. They have to reduce the size of the fuel tank (invariably by an...
The second description seems to be more common, but people do use and understand terms differently. Rolling PEM is really common in mildly...
B12 deficiency, plus low vitamin D if I don't supplement. (I might have the world's best skin type for vitamin D production, but it also means...
I've often consulted VeryWell, it is useful. For major brands it would probably be too much of a business risk to deliberately split production...
That's impressive. Not as much as the old lady on my mam's estate who cut the chip out of her bus pass and glued it to a magic wand, but still.
It's also muddied by the apparent existence of a post EBV-like group, who have significant symptoms but they do eventually resolve. There's still...
I've thought about this too, but I wonder if symptoms are part of the difficulty. What matters to me is what I can do. That's partly governed by...
You should definitely enter functional fungus and psychosomatic spoons for a prize in the Pompous Parsnips thread. :rofl:
I feel the same, because there were also three of us (though not at the same time). Also, I have two close but unrelated friends that I've shared...
AKA luck. I agree—it might turn out that there's some fascinating combination of events that are necessary, but it seems just as likely there aren't.
Is this interesting research from a respected team, or auto-generated from an immunology book, a psychology article in the People's Friend, and a...
I don't know, but it's possible it might not be a great deal in practical terms. I'm guessing universities in the UAE might have better resources...
It's dead helpful for cat allergy (for which I now have take it year-round, owing to adopting a kitten and becoming allergic to her three years...
The people I saw offered no therapies at all and had no connection with ME clinics. That may have been important. Their job was to look at...
If we separate post-exertional malaise from post-exertional effects (measurable changes after exertion), I dare say it'll have the support of folk...
I think they're safe in that assumption. If the biological underpinnings of ME were discovered next week, I bet some of them would be totally...
