Recently I had blood tests. Drawing my blood is almost always a problem. I wonder if this is a common phenomenon with pwME. After several tries, a lab technician may be able to get enough of a sample for testing. If I've had to wait quite some time, all the while sitting upright, my heart may...

Can anyone recommend a good, reputable polling website where it's free to set up a poll and where people who take part don't have to register? I'm aware that S4ME has a polling capability, but I'm looking for something that can be done independently (and without registration, as I said)...

As pain is currently optional on the NICE guidelines I was just wondering what sort of percentages experience pain as an ongoing symptom. The pain should be only attributable (as far as is possible to know) to ME, ie not another existing medical condition. Where it might get tricky is if you...
