Afaic if a person had prior diagnosis of M.E, and given this type severity rarely happens over night, they shouldn't be given this diagnosis without really good explanations of why it wasn’t explained by a very severe M.E. diagnosis. I don’t know how commonly it’s being misused in our area, I just heard of it in relation to Esther Crawley.
