One interesting development that we have noticed in our area is that many more people with ME/CFS these days are falling into the mild to moderate category and improving with the help of various approaches more quickly than previously.

As more professionals are recognizing the illness sooner and administering symptom control along with giving sensible management advice people seem less likely to slip into the chronic more severe illness. In areas such as ours where there are specialist NHS services people are being diagnosed sooner and GPs giving good early advice more often. However the domiciliary services are also seeing a number of the severe patients for whom things will probably take longer.

We are starting to see with ME/CFS as with most conditions that it makes sense to intervene earlier rather than later to prevent chronicity and severity of illness. Although the situation is far from perfect things are improving and It’s great to see more of our members moving on and being able to take up active lives again.
