#pwME

If you experience PEM & are on the mild-mod spectrum of #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis or #LongCovid & are able to get out 1/2 times a month & feel isolated and lonely, then this might be the type of session you could enjoy☁️ Please help me with my research: Short Q’s🩵🦋 www.surveymonkey.com/r/5GX63NB

I’ve been trying to inform MSK #ConnectHealth at a recent physio appt about your work but it falls on deaf ears. I have another appt booked as requested a qualified person with knowledge on M.E. to treat me but not sure there is one currently on #NHS where I live so who knows what will happen next

Feel very privileged to have spent time with @putrinolab.bsky.social & others in the last week discussing actual evidence based robust science relating to ME and Long Covid. There is no room for this sort of nonsense @bmj_latest

2 days left and we are £55 short of the target. Please help to cover our overheads for 1 year We do important work for the M.E community. Covering overheads helps by taking financial pressure off, allowing us to be more effective 🙏 www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/supporting... #MEAwarenessMonth #pwME

Women's cancers get 20% less funding than male cancers, despite much worse survival rates The public gives male cancers significantly more funding per case than women's cancers, even when their survival rates are lower www.thecanary.co/uk/news/2025...

Reposting for those who didn't see it last night. Our petition (and reasons for) has been covered by @thecanaryuk.bsky.social 🫶 #pwME #DisabilityCutsKill

@thriftvip & @thrift_stop_pop_shop are going #BlueForME this year, on instagram, sharing a selection of blue 🦋 items of apparel available to purchase, with a percentage of those sales going towards M.E. research. I’m keeping my campaign there as it’s too much to do here too 🩵🦋🩵🦋🩵🦋🩵🦋🩵🦋🩵🦋

So pleased you reached your goal @davetuller1.bsky.social ! Onwards! 🩵🦋🩵🫂🙏🏼🎉

When a disabled person talks about their symptoms, the immediate reaction of a lot of people is denial. They can't imagine or comprehend symptoms like we describe so they don't think it's real, and instead default to thinking we're lying. But we have to live with it every day.

#NHS place update this! ‘Some people with ME/CFS have found that exercise programmes can make their symptoms better. But some also found it made no difference or actually made symptoms worse.’ No exercise makes symptoms better for #pwME it is contra-indicated = #PEM www.nhs.uk/conditions/c...

Disabled people deserve to live... not just exist. In fact, everyone does

A survey to help me gain further insight to help those with energy limiting conditions through gentle flowing movement, relaxation and sensory immersion www.surveymonkey.com/r/5GX63NB This is ONLY suitable for #pwME (mild) #LongCovid

Your disabled family member matters. But that’s not a reason to suggest others aren’t “as disabled as them” so the system “is being taken advantage of”. Your family member deserves support, and so do all others.

This is encouraging and a small step in the right direction

I’ve just written a letter back to MSK services regarding my recent experience and the distinct lack of knowledge around trained therapists in #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis within #NHS care. This has to change ! #Rehabilitation #LongCovid

I’m currently working on putting together a proposal atm so a bit quiet on here … progress is slow but currently steady with lots of resting in between. 🩵 I’m also preparing a few bits for #MEAwareness in May 🦋 … love and waves to all 🌊🌊🌊
