I have Asperger's syndrome (late, but solidly, diagnosed at the age of 48. It explained a lot) and I now have quite severe CFS /ME. It's only anecdotal but on neither Autism or CFS support groups have I spotted an unusual concentration of the other condition showing up. If there is a statistical con...

And a big thank you from me. Not from the ME.

Chris.

Having had a quick look at a couple of the past clinics, I get the impression those of us with CFS/ME/Fibromyalgia have both generated a higher volume of questions than average, and also shown a greater tendency to be active and challenging. It's understandable We get enough forced passivity at home...

. Although I have limited physical stamina I also have limited mental stamina. .. I can literally feel the energy draining out of me and my mind just sort of grinding to a halt... I have the same problem if I am in a noisey/bright/hectic type environment... Is there any help that can be offered for...

Two things: Firstly a statement of general support for your point, and to say the best information, practical advice and help I have had, by far, has come from a peer group of CFS/ME sufferers on-line, not through any NHS channel with, latterly, one major exception: I now have a superb Occupational ...

Thank you, Dr Miller. For something nicely measured to work with and from. the people who make the best recovery from CFS/ME steer a compromise between over and under activity. People who fare badly either tend to drive themselves too hard and "crash" " Could we add "or are drive...

Thank you for your response :) I currently can only have shopping once a week and order online which is why I have been relying on frozen food and ready meals. I'm with you on a weekly shop, delivered, and in not wanting food preparation to take up more than is absolutely necessary out of a very li...
