Hi crosser. I live near Bath and went to the clinic there. At the time I was newly diagnosed, Ill for 18 months, and soooo naive. I was desperate to get well after an acute viral onset.
The diagnosis of CFS is an affront to the intellect..... but they were doctors......... The course delivered by a pair of OT's whom I likened to a pantomime horse half killed me and the numbers dropped from 13 in the first week to 3 in the third week and stayed there. I saw it through due to still having a belief in the medical system, can't believe I was so dumb.......
It was my Rubicon, and as the scales dropped from my eyes and I saw the whole sqaulid charade for what it was I felt betrayed, ripped up their self-assessment forms and told them where they could stick them.
Do you know that scene in the first Judge Dread where chief justice takes the 'long walk' leaving mega city behind, yeah well it felt a bit like that. And then I found PR in the wilderness....and began to recover.
We all have to find our own way, may you have luck and help on yours.
Anger is a gift
