Another excellent conference on Sat 19.11.2022
See Dr Muirhead’s reminder of the “GMC Duties of a Good Doctor”
(I took a screenshot, as I thought it could be useful to have!)

Edit: correct link
I attended an online conference at the weekend and, interestingly, one of the doctors presenting produced this “GMC duties of a good doctor”.
I thought it was good to keep in the arsenal, should a letter to a Practice Manager/complaints Dept was ever needed. I hope it is helpful...
There were some tweets posted by MEAction Network U.K. 25 October on the ‘red thread’ campaign.
I should imagine that their U.K. volunteers are recovering from organising the event (I don’t think they have many, and the vast majority have ME).
I obtained a full pdf which my Braincell is absolutely refusing to transfer into the forum. The full BMJ article is much better than the heading (see thread title) implies:
“Demonstrators in London’s Parliament Square last week called for hundreds of millions of pounds missing from research...
I have been reading about coding/SNOMED for a while (and struggle badly because it is so complicated to get the hang of).
However, back in May, I was wandering the internet and discovered further details of these CTV3 codes
(click to view, click on right arrow to view codes for moderate and...
Do you know @Sly Saint whether this meeting will be recorded for future viewing please?
I would be very interested in hearing @Caroline Struthers speak but am unavailable that day and also would need to split into a couple of viewings.
Many thanks.
Very grateful to Prof Cummings for emphasising these points, as I requested (my bolding):
“By the time they came forward to participate, they had already experienced considerable improvement of their cognitive-linguistic difficulties. If these same participants had been assessed several months...

‘A very short consultation period’ = Another example of ableism?
Listen to the “Genetic Gender Gap” BBC Radio 4 programme from April 2020, Dr Sharon Moelem was extremely interesting.

Another tweet by one of the authors
my response
ETA I must read all this more carefully.
Concerned by the repeated use of ‘chronic fatigue syndrome’ on a paper written this year…..:banghead:
Thanks both, I will suggest that to @Russell Fleming, especially if some Technical Wizard* can confirm that an email alert can go to a member when they are tagged?
* @NelliePledge / Moderators - May we have assistance in whether this alert could work please?
Swift response from Russell of ME Association received today:
“As you can imagine, the more letters that Dr Shepherd writes, the more requests we receive from the community about other health websites in the UK (and abroad!). For now, we are prioritising NHS websites and continuing to work...
Thought I should add Sally Callow’s #ShakeItUp Campaign details in here, because she continues to work on this.
See the ‘Updates’ section of the petition, where she details replies received or thoughts on the next steps
eg July 2022 - not connecting with Rt Hon Steve Barclay yet, when the post...
