Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is a disabling chronic illness. People with ME/CFS experience profound fatigue that does not go away with rest, sleep issues, and problems with memory or concentration. Further common symptoms include dizziness, nausea and pain. The hallmark symptom is a worsening of the illness which starts hours to days after minor physical or mental activity. This "crash" can last from hours or days to several months.

Really appreciate the factual historical documentation which puts in to context our current day experience of #ME in medicine.
New Video: @georgemonbiot.bsky.social describes the treatment of #MECFS as "The Greatest Medical Scandal of the 21st century". The video explores the impact of ineffective & harmful treatments & how they were defended by the scientific & media establishment.

Hi All,
First post.
Please tell me what you wanted and needed to hear from your doctor at the beginning of your #LongCovid and or #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis journey. The beginning is the hardest part when approaching a chronic illness that has not yet been addressed.
