It's important to know what's happening everywhere and how different patients' experiences are in different locations... in one place a center of excellence being built to offer a clinic full of specialists, in another place no access to any doctors knowledgeable about the disease, and in some the snake-pit nightmare of patients shunted into mental health facilities and being mis-treated to death because the nature of their illness is misunderstood. Sounds like you've got soem hope at least with the visits of de Meirleir, but the presence of a specialist once a year is nowhere near enough. This disease needs a ton more funding for research and for patient clinics and services!Creekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06145185297188783266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15890111.post-72728830088312699602011-01-22T06:42:29.907+11:002011-01-22T06:42:29.907+11:00Thanks for the article.
