Action for M.E.
Action for M.E. is an organisation led by people with M.E., for people with M.E.
M.E. (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis) affects an estimated 250,000 men, women and children in the UK. Symptoms can include post-exertional malaise (a period of intense exhaustion that lasts for more than 24 hours following exertion) and chronic pain. M.E. affects different people in different ways and symptoms can fluctuate and change over time.
M.E. is defined by the World Health Organisation as a neurological condition. It may be diagnosed as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) or Post Viral Fatigue Syndrome (PVFS).This should not be confused with chronic fatigue, which is a different illness.
Action for M.E.'s mission is empowering people with M.E. to fulfil their potential and secure the care and support they need, while working towards a greater understanding of the illness and ultimately a cure.
