Given that symptoms are what a person experiences and reports, they can say the symptoms are real, but at the same time say the experience is an...
I had a quick look at the survey Action for ME have set up for feedback. It's far too brief and has leading questions. I feel a letter coming on....
Thank you @Yann04. That sounds like a valuable resource.
I think the BPS idea is that we aren't really as disabled as we think we are, that we are misinterpreting signals from our bodies. I don't think...
Gladwell is a senior member of BACME, he has also for a long time advised AfME on their documents about ME, including their very lengthy pacing...

I doubt they actually have access to that amount of money. All we've seen so for of the ThereForME campaign is 2 carers trying to raise awareness....
I thought it was pretty good, though I get fed up with presenters who interrupt people in the middle of saying something significant with another...
Daily mail article is based on the Good Morning Britain TV interview with Sarah Boothby and Charles Shepherd.
I don't suppose most people at NIH have any thoughts at all about ME/CFS, and are happy to leave it to Nath and WalItt. If it's those 2 running...
That's fantastic to see they have given so much space in the print edition. These are the 3 online articles we've seen this week, which may be...
