Treat ME more seriously, doctors ordered - Telegraph
Extract:
"ME, or Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, affects 193,000 people in Britain. Symptoms can include debilitating fatigue, headaches, sleep problems and muscle pain.
Doctors had argued over whether the condition existed. Some experts suggested it was just "yuppie flu".
Sir Liam Donaldson, the Government's chief medical officer, sought to end the controversy in 2002 when he said it was a genuine and disabling condition.
The disease is also listed as a neurological disorder by the World Health Organisation.
The guidance from Nice recommends that doctors develop a management plan for each patient.
Doctors should also offer advice on activity, rest periods, sleep patterns, diet, equipment to help maintain independence such as the blue badge for disabled drivers, and advice on fitness to work or study."
It is very helpful for people with ME to cut down on their intake of salt and salty food. They will then have much more energy.
