    Friend is in Canada, has ME/CFS. What's the Canadian equivalent of the ME Association or #MEAction and is it any good? i.e. providing information about the dangers of pushing yourself to exercise beyond your normal abilities.

    Hi @Sarah94.

    This is one of the national ME organizations in Canada:

    https://www.mefmaction.com/


    This is another Canadian national ME organization:

    https://millionsmissingcanada.ca/

    There are also provincial, and possibly ME organizations in the territories as well.

    I don't know if each province has an organization, but the national groups could let your friend know about that.

    Hope this helps.
    :)

    There is a Facebook group called Myalgic Encephalomyelitis Canada. Join and it will give you access to info and resources available, and you can start discussions if you do not find answers.
