    When even Medscape can't get your disease name right

    The UK edition has this by D Strain. https://www.medscape.co.uk/viewarticle/key-learning-points-revised-nice-guidance-me-cfs-2022a1001jdq Maybe someone based in USA could draw their attention to the issues on medscape.com content

    Bristol Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/ME Service; Bristol M.E. Service - Peter Gladwell

    Seems likely to be sloppy web management leaving orphan content nothing links to that should have been removed when the link was removed.

    The Chrysalis Effect

    Yes no difference between this and Lightning Process in terms of the money making multi level marketing approach of selling “practitioner training”. Should be specifically excluded in the NICE guidelines on the same basis as LP as NOT a treatment for ME.

    Oxford concise medical dictionary

    Well it is nearly 10 years old. Bit shoddy website management to not have had it reviewed and updated.

    Will psychotherapists corrupt pacing?

    I reckon this has been happening for some time. In 2016 when I went to the CFS/ME clinic I was told they don’t do GET, it is a course on “managing ME”, the reality was PACE lite with a lot of group time and short 1-1 sessions to set some priorities and then see how you’re progressing against...

    Alcohol intolerance and myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome, 2023, Maciuch, Jason

    I think there’s a spectrum of intolerance. I can drink without immediate negative effects. It is still enjoyable although because I drink so infrequently I do get tiddly on one glass. I get worse/longer PEM if I drink, even though I limit to 2 glasses. When I don’t drink at a social event I...

    Implementation of the NICE Guideline [NG206] on [ME/CFS] in England - Freedom of Information Findings Report - Action for ME, May 2023

    Sorry @Suffolkres i don’t understand your post eg reference to points 2 and 5 in the attachment I’m not sure what notes relate to what. It’s hard for me to understand points in note form rather than sentences.

    Closed UK: DecodeME updates, was recruitment thread.

    Even if someone has shared on social media before their followers won’t all see the post especially on Facebook so always worth people asking people with high numbers of followers whenever there is a new DecodeME post to share.

    New Zealand: Criteria for disability support services

    Presumably there will be some kind of manual or training material for the people making assessments? If not in the public domain maybe need freedom of information request them.

    Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME) Diagnosis & Management Information for Doctors & Healthcare Providers (from ME Advocates Ireland), May 2023

    UK: Disability benefits (UC, ESA and PIP) - news and updates 2023 (including government plans to scrap the work capability assessment)

    As I understand it Civil Servants who were working from home are expected to be in the office minimum 3 days each week now. And they were only working from home if the work could be done from home which depending on technology didn’t include people who work on call centres for example. Stuff...

    Still not heard back from local Healthwatch about a response from national Healthwatch comms, so I’ve sent another reminder……..
