Abstract:
Myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) is a chronic, severely disabling condition, but one which is little understood and about which there are many misconceptions. Former health visitor Anne Hoad, diagnosed with ME in her mid-50s, describes her own struggle to come to terms with the illness and the limitations it has placed on her life.
