Thankyou - is the use of the term "experts by experience" a new PC way of saying "patient"?

[Baner in reply to PMRpro]

I hope you are one of the three “experts”, if not I wonder how they picked the members of their GWG

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to Baner]

I'm not!!! I think Lorna Neill is though I don't know. The interviewee presumably is - don't know the name, probably a Leeds patient - might know her by another name of course!!!!

I am one of them, based in West Yorkshire. My name is Kath and it isn't me in that article.

We haven't really got off the ground with the guideline work yet but will keep everyone posted via the charity when there's an update.

I'm very glad to be able to feed into this process from a patient perspective.

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to Coffeebeans]

I wish I could come along in your pocket!!!

Thank you for this. I’m all for ‘…a holistic view of the person…’.

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to 123-go]

Me too - would make a change with some doctors wouldn't it!!!

[123-go in reply to PMRpro]

Wouldn’t it just!
