Sorry for the question but do you #pwME pee a lot ? I realised I pee more than 3L per day, drinking only electrolytes and being on 0.05mg Fludrocortisone. Might explain my very low BP ? #MECFS #POTS


Y'day I talked to my gardener for 25mins, which is over my 15min can-do limit. Now I am aching all over. My hands hurt from opening a bottle of mineral water,all the other hurting is just from talking / cognitive exercise. It's ridiculous to have to suffer from just talking #pwME


It's always a surprise to me what kinda doctor (I mean which discipline) #pwME and similar illnesses (even POTS) see (the minority that has one), because we're nobody's problem. And that makes us the problem of the few individuals spread all over healthcare who don't reject us.


Der Februar war der schlimmste und schönste Monat, seit ich krank bin. Pure Boshaftigkeit gegen meine größte Wunde: mein Kind. Ich danke euch so für Dasein, Zuhören, Kraftspenden, Mitwüten, Mitfühlen, Ablenken, Blumen, Post und Überraschungen! #pwME: Ihr seid mein Schutzwall ♥️

I need a new doctor and compared to other #pwME I’m lucky that I have quite a strong file with many objective tests (see next tweet). Yet I can’t find a doctor because they say it's functional. So if I don’t even stand a chance, how can people who have had fewer tests done? 1/2


#pwME Where would you be if you could get out of your house or out of your bed? Post as many photos as you want. My house is about 1/4 mile to the left of this photo taken from Swift’s Hill, Slad, Gloucestershire. I haven’t been up there for over 30 years!

#pwME and similar illnesses, do you still do pap smear tests or at home hpv tests? There's a higher risk of persistent hpv with certain chronic illnesses. So even if you don't have sex anymore, it can still be important. We know that this is the case for example in SLE. 1/


Can someone help my friend Marij? She is a #pwME and needs advice on 1. issues with her heart and 2. iron and transferrin saturation. If you don't have any advice, retweeting her post would also really help! Thank you ♡

I have a situation and hope #pwME will have a look with me. I have 2 problems. 1 serious issues with my heart. 2. Iron and transferrin saturation pretty elevated.

With one week left, the appeal is only at 53% so I have donated for a second time. I am very grateful to David for his work and have no appetite to go back to similar work myself. #MEcfs #PwME
