M.E. Too or Why I am No Longer NOT Speaking to Doctors about Chronic Illness
Three weeks ago, I met the first doctor in 25 years to believe me. She is a gynaecologist and I went to consult her about my intense peri-menopause rather than my autoimmune condition. As symptoms …

Simon Wessely has signed a letter which states “Ensuring that the views and experiences of those who use the services are properly taken account of, should be the sine qua non of a publicly funded body tasked with devising clinical guidelines.” Unless they are ME/CFS patients?

. @CMonaghanSNP has secured a general debate on myalgic encephalomyelitis treatment and research in Westminster Hall on 21 June. Shame it’s not in the main chamber but I gather that could still happen at a later date. Thanks to Carol @NickyMorgan01 and all who helped.
The Committee has announced the latest backbench business debates to be allocated.

Pls RT if you shed a tear during #hospital. Shameful that #NHS staff forced to work under such stress when patients lives are at stake.
On review of science and data of the #MEcfs #PACEtrial Reanalysis of data the researchers tried to block. If you have concern for evidence based science, this is a story to cover. If advisers suggest otherwise, investigate conflict of interest @janegarvey1 @BBCWomansHour
“These findings raise serious concerns about the robustness of the claims made about the efficacy of CBT and GET. The modest treatment effects obtained on self-report measures in the PACE trial do not exceed what could be reasonably accounted for by participant reporting biases”
*Please share this far and wide* Hugely significant analysis of the much-discredited PACE trial for #MEcfs is published today. 1. Short summary from BBC News: bbc.co.uk/news/health-43… 2. The full fresh research paper: bmcpsychology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…
