In response to a question from @ZackPolanski.bsky.social on #LongCovid @DrAmirKhanGP.bsky.social says “I feel really helpless when I see them.” People who were healthy just a few years ago, a lot of them have lost their independence & ability to earn and there’s nothing in place to look after them.

“I don’t think I can think of another condition that would be treated this way.” Dr Anna Brooks, Liggins Institute. A powerful opening to Zoe Madden-Smith’s award-winning RE:News documentary on #MECFS

Dr Charles Shepherd (@meassociation.org.uk) explains how in the 80s and 90s psychiatrists claimed #MECFS was due to “deconditioning” and “abnormal illness beliefs”. Graded exercise therapy made many patients worse, with some ending up in wheelchairs. It was only removed from NICE guidance in 2021.

Congratulations to @sharonhodgsonmp.bsky.social on her new role Minister for Public Health and Prevention. Sharon has been a strong supporter of people with ME/CFS and has spoken in a number of parliamentary debates. Here are some highlights from a debate in 2019.

“It made me much worse… Most people I know with ME have exactly the same experience with it.” Annette Barclay, a patient with #MEcfs describing her deterioration following Graded Exercise Therapy.

“They sometimes aren’t supported by their families. They almost always aren’t supported any longer by their friends.” Caroline Kingdon, on the profound isolation experienced by people with severe #MECFS.

Helen Gibson and Edward Monroe on BBC Radio 4’s Feedback challenge Suzanne O’Sullivan’s claims that #LongCovid is largely psychosomatic when she was interviewed on Amol Rajan’s podcast. Mentions #MECFS, NICE’s 2021 guidance and DecodeME genetic findings.

Clip from a WDR German TV report: Pascal Hilgruber developed ME/CFS following a Covid infection or vaccination. He now spends 80–90% of his day in bed and says being able to go to the toilet on his own feels like an achievement.

12-yr-old Aveline loved trapeze and sports. Long Covid changed everything. “Within a day my entire life was flipped around… it’s been a constant battle against my own body.” “It’s really isolating. All my friends go to school together and I would give anything to be there.”

#MECFS “is a real hidden illness and it can shrink lives” Fliss and Rob Shepley spoke on BBC Radio Merseyside about their upcoming Land’s End to John O’Groats cycle ride to raise funds for the ME Association. They are taking on the challenge for their daughter, who lives with #MECFS

Republicans claim to care about fraud, and then elect and capitulate to a felon. If we want real investigations into fraud in this country we need to start by retaining prosecutors, and then we need to take a good hard look at Donald Trump and his Administration.
