The M.E. And CFS Report

The idea behind setting up The M.E And CFS Report is to provide a place where people who have a diagnosis of either M.E or CFS can find all the latest news about their illness.

Both Twitter and Facebook havebecome major ways of passing on information and raising awareness abut our illness, the problem is information on Twitter and Facebook is fast moving and it is easy to miss something. The M.E And CFS Report helps by collecting all of the information related to both ME and CFS that is beng currently shared online, and placing it in one place for you to read. I hope you find this a useful resource.

Welcome to my Fog Blog. The original purpose of this blog was to document my life on a day to day basis as evidence of what it is like to live with M.E., for my tribunal for Employment and Support Allowance. The blog however has developed since then. You will now find here:
- the occasional post about my life with M.E.
- posts regarding developing a new relationship whilst struggling with M.E.
- information about M.E. and CFS
- information about sickness benefits and my journey with them.

If you are uncertain what M.E. / CFS is, please follow the second link below.

A brief overview of my story, is that I have been ill since 2001. My onset happened with a combination of a viral infection, an allergic reaction to a house infected with toxic mould, and a nervous breakdown. Diagnosis took six years of fighting with doctors who didn't believe I was ill and going round and round in circles in the NHS. For six months of 2010 I was bedbound. I am now mostly housebound. I cannot remember what it is like to be healthy.
