    UK Parliament: ME/CFS Announcements: Statement by Health Secretary Sajid Javid, 12 May 2022

    Wonder if you are able to enlarge on this. Who attended and the form and general purpose of the meeting. Was it seen to be the first of many primarily to obtain funding?

    (2022) "Weʼre raising £16,000 to Continue Dr Geraghty's Vital ME/CFS Research"

    Adding my voice to the appreciation of your work Keith. Thank you for hanging in with us ME people, many desert us and we badly need academic research of a high standard now. I think a YouTube channel is a good idea as you suggested on Twitter.

    Limbic Perfusion Is Reduced in Patients with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS), 2021, Xia Li et al

    This is way beyond my scientific capacity but I wondered if this could be related to the micro-blood-clots currently being treated in Germany, mainly on LongCovid patients though I gather a few ME patients have been successfully treated there?

    Publication of the NICE ME/CFS guideline after the pause (comment starting from the announcement of 20 October 2021)

    United Kingdom: ME Association governance issues

    ‘It was professor Findlay who told me not to join any charity groups or attend any support groups or look up my illness on the internet!!!!! Why would he want to be a patron?’ The above was posted on the ME Association thread on Twitter. It seems to sum the situation up perfectly. The arrogance...

    United Kingdom: Optimum Health Clinic (Alex Howard)

    I saw a couple of these sessions. I would term them ‘coaching’ as they bore little resemblance to true therapy. He intervenes constantly as ‘the one who knows’. Disturbing.

    Request for patients' stories harmed by GET

    Just seen this on Twitter…2.30pm Could be important, it’s from a reliable source. I know we’re all exhausted but maybe it’s worth a shot? “NICE have asked for at least 50 case studies from people who’ve been harmed by Graded Exercise Therapy. They need them today.”

    NICE ME/CFS guideline - draft published for consultation - 10th November 2020

    Sadly the advice on the NHS website will continue to be damaging and out of date. I gather it won’t be changed until the new guidelines are published.

    Why is ME/CFS getting so little research funding?

    My cancer surgeon, who was very sympathetic to ME, said simply, “no one knows where to start”. I think this is true. It’s hard for researchers to find a way in with the absence of any sort of reliable biomarker.

    Action for M.E. 2019 AGM and conference 15th October 2019

    I can't see the stream and I left the organisation in disgust several years ago, however I did respond to one of their tweets today in this way, 'I understand your dilemma (that of validating experience and offering hope!!) as someone severely ill for 28 years and a daughter ill for even longer...
