We stand with the ME community in urgently calling for stronger action to improve care & support for people with ME, particularly those who are severely & very severely affected. We will continue to work with Parliament to push for support, accountability & meaningful change.
We are grateful to our Parliamentary Champions for continuing to raise these important questions in Parliament.
Join our third PRIME workshop to learn more about post-exertional malaise (PEM).
PEM is the hallmark symptom of ME, where physical or mental activity can cause a delayed worsening of symptoms, often hours or days later. This can include debilitating fatigue, pain, brain fog, and flu-like symptoms.
๐๏ธ Date: Thursday, 30 July
๐Time: 2pm-5pm, GMT
๐Location: online via Zoom
Unlike normal tiredness, PEM isnโt relieved by rest, and recovery can take days, weeks or longer.
This workshop will ask various questions about PEM, including what it is, what causes it, and how can it best be explained and defined?
Register for the PRIME International Symposium to explore emerging ME/CFS research with researchers, clinicians, charities and people with lived experience.
๐๏ธ 28 Sept 9am-29 Sept 2pm
