  Thank you for this information, I will send it to our dietitian as we are looking into tube feeding at present. It seems that they are reluctant to do NGT feeding at home ( said that it would require an xray ), so hospital visit necessary anyway and therefore a PEG would be better for feeding if needed for longer than four weeks. No easy solution to this it seems.

  @crashdummy thanks for your excellent comments. This was not the recent news about Medicare, it is old news that I have just found out about. I'm not aware of the media covering it

  @iris this is in the You+ME app where there is a predefined list of symptoms you can select from and you rate each symptom from 0-4 every day (or on whatever schedule you choose) so I don't think that's an option. You can add your own symptoms, but I'm trying to avoid doing that as much as possible to keep the data clean.

  @Simone_Em_Aus The other problem Warren has is logistics. These samples have to be sourced close to the lab within a certain time frame. That's a problem for much research and I think a key to this is collaboration internationally using the same methods with a well-characterized cohort. But yes - funding is everything.
