This is a group where people with the neurological, cardiac, immune and neuroendocrine illness Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, their carers and those who advocate for them, can get together to discuss new activism ideas and strategies, share new research etc. - see what we can come up with between all of us and then hopefully put it to use to start finally changing things for us all. It's beyond overdue.

Heated debates are definitely allowed, but no personal attacks will be tolerated. Posts not directly related to ME or in other ways disruptive, may also not be accepted at the moderators discretion. Let's keep it nice, and remember to always respect each others opinions (and each other) - even if we do strongly disagree on certain issues (as is bound to happen fairly often).

ALSO: PLEASE ignore ALL the silly ads for 'medical' treatments on this site they are NOT vetted or reccomended by this group in any way.

Note: It is important to be aware that in practice M.E. and CFS are not synonymous terms. See What is M.E.? for more information on all aspects of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis and a discussion of why the bogus disease category 'CFS' must be abandoned.
