Lotte has lived with #LongCOVID for 6 years. At her worst she spent 22 hrs a day in bed and was unable to hold a conversation. She worries about her future as the Dutch government doesn’t treat it as a priority and not enough is being done to help her take part in society again.

Patients with #MECFS in Living Hell (1993) describe their interactions with doctors. “Drug addict” “Alcoholic” “School phobia” “210 doctors told me I was crazy” Patients still report similar experiences today.

George Monbiot describes the treatment of #MECFS as “The Greatest Medical Scandal of the 21st century”. Repost of the introduction to my 27-minute explainer video for #MEAwarenessMonth — now optimised for phones.

Hearing the stories of people with #MECFS who took the Decode ME results to their doctors and for the first time were believed is incredibly powerful. Sonya Chowdhury CEO of Action for ME on BBC Lifeline and how they are building on this work to move closer towards treatments.

Intro to a 1993 documentary on #MECFS When medicine doesn’t understand an illness, patients are often mistreated. New discoveries challenge existing beliefs, but in the meantime, for those suffering, life can be a living hell.

TW: Assisted Suicide Clip from German TV. Kim has #MECFS and describes how her illness has progressed, leaving her bedbound and sensitive to light and sound. At 25, she talks about her decision to apply for assisted suicide, saying she can no longer live like this.

Sleep hygiene can be just as “damaging as graded exercise” for patients with #MECFS Dr Nigel Speight describes a girl with severe sleep reversal. She walked into hospital and was carried out a month later needing to be tube fed.
