    The Independent - What are the symptoms of ME and how is it treated? May 2019

    Pretty awful article imo. Includes quotes from SC AfME, and the MEA making the psych vs physical point. Also links to MERUK and the CDC. Very muddled mish mash. Not the best kind of 'awareness raising'...

    Article in 'Philly voice' - This 'invisible illness' doesn't have a known cause or effective treatment

    Not a particularly bad article that quotes #MEAction a lot (The Myalgic Encephalomyelitis Action Network). However, I question the bit at the end re Lady Gaga being an ME/CFS sufferer (I thought she had Fibromyalgia(?)) @JaimeS But then looking through it again, in the middle of the article is...

    'My horrendous illness leaves me in bed for 20 hours a day' - Hull Daily Mail Mar 2019

    not very well written (a couple of half-quotes that don't make much sense). Also, although it initially says a 'crippling rare illness', at the end it gives the 250,000 UK and 17m figure worldwide........'rare'?? there is also an instant poll to identify if readers are ME sufferers/know...
