New Research from Dundee Hospital

New research has been done by Dundee Hospital finding further evidence that M.E. is linked to a virus.  It is great news that research is being done on this scale and to help Children who have it.  It must be very hard for them to deal with.  As an adult I have had to deal with prejudice, disgust and no one believing me.

I have copies of all my blood tests from my doctors, as I paid privately to see a neurologist, needing them to show him.  This also showed some abnormalities in my blood.  I am going to contact Professor Jill Belch to see if these will help in her research. Here's hoping they can and I still strive every day to educate people on this horrible disease which is not all in your mind.  I am counting down the days to the conference in London that Action for ME has organised regarding benefits and M.E.  I am going to hopefully be educated about the ESA system and to tell them what it is like to have the illness and be constantly preyed on.
