Uttmattningssyndrom och ME/CFS - Umeå 12. sept
Uttmattningssyndrom och ME/CFS - Malmö 2. okt
Description of the seminar:
Over 700 visitors in Stockholm and Göteborg
After the well attended seminars in Stockholm and Göteborg last year we are pleased to offer a repetition. We will provide information about two difficult illnesses which are causing a lot of suffering and with a long-lasting, sometimes chronic, course. It's important for everyone who work in health care to have knowledge about these conditions. The seminar will make you up to date on causes, diagnostics, treatments and rehabilitation.
The programs for the seminars are almost identical. Starting with some lectures on chronic fatigue and continuing with these two lectures about ME and clinic by senior doctor Per Julin from the ME/CFS clinic Stora Sköndal and ME and research by prof. Jonas Bergquist from Uppsala University.

They are educating people about the differences between chronic fatigue as in the psych diagnosis burnout (stress related exhaustion/fatigue/depression), and ME as defined in the Canadian consensus criteria.
