Several researchers pointed out that medical school textbooks around the globe have little or no descriptions of this condition.

The Supreme Court directs the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare to consider people with ME/CFS Dec 2022 from: Dr. Marc-Alexander Fluks Source: Medical Dialogues Date: December 6, 2022 Author: Barsha Misra URL: https://medicaldialogues.in/news/he...nic-fatigue-syndrome-sc-directs-centre-103586 Examine ways to improve conditions of people suffering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: SC Directs Centre ------------------------------------------------------------------- New Delhi: The Supreme Court recently directed the Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare for examining the means for betterment of the conditions of people suffering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or Myalgic Encephalomyelitis.
Here's the link to the Supreme Court ruling: https://medicaldialogues.in/pdf_upload/supreme-court-chronic-fatigue-syndrome-192999.pdf I think the article is a bit more positive than the actual Supreme Court ruling. I think the judges ruled that the delay in providing the good care that might have been expected as a result of the 2017 National Policy for Treatment of Rare Diseases is ok. But that if the petitioner was to submit a request to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, the court has provided support for a review of the matter by experts. Of course, the key thing is 'which experts?'. I think the petitioner is P. Sreenivasa Chakravarthy - good on them. There is also a list of people 'for the petitioner' who I assume are advisors for the petitioner: Mr. S.P. Singh, Sr. Adv. Mr. Rakesh Khanna, Sr. Adv. Mr. Gopal Verma, AOR Mr. Umang Verma, Adv Mr. Ganganmeet Singh Sachdeva, Adv. Ms. Ramya Khanna, Adv. It would be terrific if the petitioner could be alerted to forum, so that they could get some international support for taking on the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.
