    Looking for feedback on my letter to local doctors

    Well you never know if they’ve got any common sense at all it’s possible that with Long Covid in the news they might have had a lightbulb moment and thought the course might be useful.

    UK - NHS England online tool and clinics for long Covid.

    Liaison psychiatry teams all round the country no doubt offering their services....... i hope there’s going to be some some actual testing and medical treatment. Definitely will be interesting to see how this turns out in practice.

    Breathlessness and air hunger in ME/CFS

    I get out of breath very quickly if I have to walk uphill or stairs. I always put it down to being overweight but I can go a lot further on the level without gasping. I think I’ve always been a shallow breather and was absolutely hopeless at cross country running at school - I had to resort to...

    How do you cope with spreading yourself thin? :-(

    Thanks @ladycatlover i will do that eventually just don’t have the brain capacity to tackle it until my refurbishment project is finished. There’s so much physical and cognitive energy needed for decision making and moving stuff around in the house. you might need to remind me next summer...

    How do you cope with spreading yourself thin? :-(

    Excellent thread @Snow Leopard. I have things I would love to be spending my time on. I have some milder ME days when I can manage to do a lot more than on my worst moderate ME days. In theory I could do some stuff that would improve my quality of life I’m not even thinking at a wish list...

    Coronavirus - worldwide spread and control

    Seems like minimising any time outside home makes sense in those circumstances. And as for the cruise industry getting going again I’m speechless.

    UK: All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on ME news, 2020 onward

    I don’t know the practicalities for arranging the meetings, possibly it is Carol Monaghans office. Five days seems very short notice. Especially if the APPG is relying on PWME to mobilise to get invites out to MPs. Maybe it’s normal for APPGs? Do MPs get notified by an invite from the APPG...

    Does your ME feel like your initial infection?

    I had gradual onset, I had repeat episodes of laryngitis, swollen glands and flu type symptoms over a period of 3/4 years when my health deteriorated noticeably but not acutely. I continue to have sore throat associated with PEM, swollen glands only occur now when I am at my worst. Since...

    News about Long Covid including its relationship to ME/CFS 2020 to 2021

    If you were picking between long covid and an ME diagnosis I think a lot of people would stick with Covid. despite the issues about perception of it being mild in younger people it has the advantage that 100% of the public have actually heard of Covid. How many of the public have ever heard of...

    News about Long Covid including its relationship to ME/CFS 2020 to 2021

    Well in reality has to be long covid as she doesn’t appear to have enough understanding of ME to be giving an accurate description of it But yes good point.

    A general thread on the PACE trial!

    I can understand why all these people are talking in terms of recovery and rehabilitation because why would they think any different. None of them who were previously healthy including the GPs have any specialist understanding about what it’s like to have a long term post viral illness...
