I remember getting it in the late 80s, before they decided that people who had double (or more) my income needed it more, so withdrew it from me. I was, at the time, on supplementary benefit bed and breakfast rate(short version - it was DSS policy at the time that claimants must move every few...

I wondered what flavour gravy they would make - probably down to being dragged up in the North East of England in the 70s/80s.

But, if it is/was commercially sensitive then that very information would itself be commercially sensitive. Down the rabbit hole we go, again.

ah, so it's a completely different Maximus from the Maximus that sent my claim back to the DWP 3 times, because I couldn't attend an assessment center that on a good day was over 2 hours away, each way, that the DWP H&S rules said was totally unsuitable and no one with mobility issues should...

I got something similar a few days ago. Basically asking me, using my first name, if I was the same person as my username on here, and thanking me for my continued support.

I wasn't under the impression that an ear was the same thing as a head, medically speaking, and even if it wasn't N=1, if it was N=678599383, then all that might have been shown is that there is a reduction in blood flow to an ear (one of, out of a possible 2) when a person is in PEM, maybe...

Anyone who's ever been owned by a cat knows they are conscious, and from that they should be capable of inferring that animals are, as a group, capable of feeling, scheming, manipulating, being annoyed, having their own distinct personalities, etc. Animals being conscious, being aware of what's...

Anyone got any leeches to deal with an excess of the humors? Second thing medicine seems to think of, too much stuff inside so lets get it out. Granted the technology involved to do so may, or may not be, higher tech than leeches, but the idea, the concept, hasn't changed much since the stone...

This is one of the packs I have, but as I haven't tested them yet I can't actually recommend them. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sukeen-Cooling-Towels-Breathable-Microfibre/dp/B0CWGG66Z7/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8&th=1 Somewhere I have another pack of a different make, but I haven't tested...

Not as such no. TBH I haven't even tested these ones yet as I forgot about them in the recent heat.

My epoxy resin was received last night, thanks to an employee of the company that sold it via amazon - as amazon were still being 'unhelpful'. By 'unhelpful' I mean total gits, or so the media tells me in modern parlance 'basic'. Which surprises me I thought the term basic became itself...

Donated.

They are very special to me, they cool drinks, an important thing, and they cool them ,allegedly, faster than cubical ice cubes - something to do with the surface area being larger. They are also significantly bigger than standard ice cubes so may last longer. Obviously I have to research this...

On the plus side I have just managed to produce my first batch of spherical ice cubes, so that's nice, and more on topic lol More difficult than you'd think, my first attempt only produced one sphere, the rest were definitely not spherical. All down to the speed they are whirred at when...

My epoxy resin, that was supposed to be here on Thursday, to repair a free evaporative cooler, was announced as 'irretrievably damaged' by the courier last night. This is after amazon stating that delivery had been attempted twice, when the courier said it was still in a distant hub. Amazon...

Cognitive impairment is the most 'damaging' symptom of ME for me. I can't organise things in my own head enough to get things done - a simple (and i do mean simple - but one step up from beans on toast) recipe can take me months to get a day where it's possible to even attempt let alone be...

If in seed form then I'd just make up some Jeera rice, as that contains 1 tsp of cumin seeds, and eat that. Of course I know this because I make it quite regularly, but I haven't noticed any effect on PEM. It does go well with a daal tho.

It's the mindset that tells people that playing in traffic will cure ME, but when inevitably people get harmed by this it's not down to the 'treatment', it's not harm caused by inappropriate activity for a pwME, it's caused by traffic, and traffic, not a medical issue, not related to any medical...

but...there is no way that I could not answer yes to the first 2, however I am pretty much exactly the same weight as i was 25 years ago (too heavy). So probably not in dire need of 'treatment'.

Eddie had a better understanding (understanding human psychology is essential for Jack Russells). Despite his passing in 2006 he probably still has a better understanding.....
