Do you have ME as well as Fibromyalgia ?

A small victory for Chronic Fatgiue Syndrome sufferers after iPaper reports:

When you go to the GP with CFS, one of the things they advise is 'gradual exercise' Thing is, if you’ve been crawling to the toilet for two months because you can’t walk, this advice is as welcome as

...........

So why do doctors prescribe this? Well one of the most influential clinical trials into how to treat CFS suggested that graded exercise worked. It was called the PACE trial.

Now the ME/CFS/SEID community gets a chance to hear the findings of the PACE Trial after requesting them to be made public ! A victory for those supporting this request

Thanks for posting. I think the only time graded activity would work is if youre getting better anyway and just need to build up fitness. Other than that it is a load of....rubbish. i hope this report slates the trial.

Can you keep us updated please? X
