Videos by Prof Peter Rowe & Dr Nigel Speight: ME/CFS in children and young people - diagnosis, symptoms, controversies, management

I'm so glad to see these videos here. It is so important to see 2 honest medical men of integrity and high calibre give an honest and well researched opinion on childhood ME which is such a devastating illness..Both have extensive experience in this area and this is obvious from their understanding, realism and compassion. I would have liked to see something along these lines in the updated guidelines by the CDC. One of them even mentions the need for home visits in some cases. These videos should be viewed by doctors everywhere and will be invaluable to parents who have a child ill with ME. I feel comforted to know they are available. Thanks for posting, Trish.

 

Thanks. They are the preliminary videos for a larger project with short videos and links covering different aspects of ME/CFS - for which I have just recently been told my application for a Wellcome Public engagement fund award has been successful - working in collaboration with Josh, the CURE ME team and a range of ME/CFS doctors, researchers and patients. Sorry I didn't get round to posting the links here myself. It has been bit frantic lately.

 

Likewise.
