Everyone from my former life is traveling Europe and getting promoted, while I’m rotting in my childhood bedroom and saying goodbye to the last of my twenties.

I’m 42 today. And today there are exactly the same number of treatments for the devastating condition M.E as there were in 1982: NONE. Decades of #MECFS outbreaks, millions of sufferers, countless opportunities to study immune insult mediated chronic disease -squandered. Why…?

Thank you all so much for the kindness and support ❀️ But I feel I need to clarify that I didn't post this because I feel hurt by this comment, I could care less if some random person on X across the world thinks I "don't have ME". The only reason these voices are as loud as

Tracey Burgess Sam Liccardo NIH The biggest slap in the face is that Ron has gotten million$$$ of NIH-funded grants over his lifelong career in genetics...until he asked for money to find answers for ME/CFS. Those were denied. Never a good reason why.

Sometimes just being conscious is too much energy expenditure when #MECFS patients are in a crash and often too much for #SevereMECFS patients period. This is why severe patients sometimes cant get better, because simply being alive uses more energy than they can sustain and

I made this short (90 sec) video of me out of breath without physical activity or mental exertion. Something I believe a lot of #MECFS and #LongCovid patients experience. I hope to make more videos about everyday life experiences with #SevereMECFS. ❀️ youtu.be/wIjAXhNnbnk?si…
