Pointless and cruel. As stated countless times before, non-human experiments do not tell us about humans. E.g. Cancer researcher slams requirement for animal models | Phoenix Rising ME/CFS Forums

Yes - I did both my Open University degrees when I had ME. It took me maybe twice as long, but I did well. That's before I suffered my worsening a few years ago.

I usually have it daily for several hours, then I'm reasonably OK, so none of the answers really apply. Unusually, today I have very little (compared with usual).

I've had mine. For some reason I didn't receive the last one, so signed up again as instructed.

Some? Rather an understatement!

Just want to add, that for very seriously affected people, this will not be possible, and they will need someone to do it for them.

Thank you so much for such a detailed, informative, and very definitive, strongly-worded review, @Jonathan Edwards! I was especially pleased to see the inclusion of the paper co-authored by the sadly-late Robert Courtenay, aka @Bob. How I wish he were still here...:cry:

I understood - just pointing out that noise in hospitals can be unbearable even for people without ME, or without severe ME. Apologies if I wasn't clear.

I was in hospital a few years ago where the noise was so bad I literally felt like jumping out of the window (and it was probably high enough to be fatal if I had been able to). It consisted of various alarms, some going off completely unnecessarily, and I was not the only person to be...
