Hi! Team Foggy and my new business Stripy Lightbulb’s Non-Executive Director Yvonne had a great time in London yesterday. We went to the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine to see the Cure M.E/M.E/CFS biobank team. The main reason for the visit was to talk about Stripy Lightbulb CIC, my new social enterprise. Community …
Hello! I hadn’t planned on writing loads of blogs during Foggy’s home stretch but a few things have happened that should be talked about. Yesterday, for want of a better word, I was ‘head-hunted’ due to my social media marketing business to ‘host’ a Twitter hour slot for the foreseeable future. I had a phone …
Hello! Devoted fans, Sally drives herself nuts by wondering if there is anything she did pre-M.E to trigger her illness. Maybe she shouldn’t have got so stressed over a breakup or maybe she should have looked after herself better. I’m sure she’s not alone in that way of thinking. I keep telling her it’s nothing …
Hi, Over the past 4 years, I have been struck by the sheer number of M.E/CFS sufferers who keep their health private. They are free to do so, that is their choice to make. However, as the founder of ME Foggy Dog, I waived that right to privacy in order to raise awareness. As you …
Hello! Sally is going to tell you all about how different people say different things to her in terms of progress. I’ll let her explain. Hi, Those eager-eyed amongst you will know that I have been busy with lots of business meetings and networking with various academic people in the past couple of weeks. I …
Hello, Foggy is on his way to China so I’m making the most of the peace and quiet. I’m writing this blog about driving because a few things have happened in the past couple of months that are worth mentioning. I have always been proud of the fact that I am a good driver. I …
Hi, I’m off to Amsterdam with Hattie the Otter and family later today and I have told Sally to get some work done while I am away. She wants to tell you all about how her Hypermobility Syndrome symptom (HMS) of fidgeting (not really a symptom but you’ll see what we mean in a bit) …
Hi, This is an issue that has bugged me for years – how do people with M.E lose weight? Now I’m not talking about people with severe M.E who are often drastically under-weight because of the condition. This blog relates more to mild/moderate sufferers. I went to an M.E conference a few years ago and …
Hi, Foggy is still winging his way to Melbourne to see the Emerge Australia gang (9 days and counting….eek). I’m making the most of the peace and quiet and, in slow time, getting ready for our M.E Awareness Week events next week (full info on mefoggydog.org). The week so far has been very busy and …
Hi, Foggy is on his way to Melbourne to meet up with the Emerge Australia gang. He can’t wait to see the lovely people who help so many of the ME Community in Australia. While he is away from Foggy HQ, I am busy organising events, doing promotion, and the usual awesome Foggy stuff that …
