Hello! Foggy is travelling to Christchurch, New Zealand and is surrounded by the bubbly loveliness that is first class (jiffy bag). To bide his time Foggy is going to tell you all about Sally’s issues with digestive problems. Sally has had problems with reactions to certain foods, bloating and discomfort (to name a few symptoms) her …
Hi, Payback is something that M.E/C.F.S. patients mention all the time, as a community we know what payback is and we don’t need to explain to each other how we are feeling. However, Foggy is all about raising awareness and as it’s been a while since I blogged about payback, it’s time for another go …
Hi! I’d like to share the love about Team Foggy’s friend Retha Viviers. Over the past year or so, Retha has become a close confidant and someone to bounce ideas off. She is also the reason I became aware of the dictaphone option on WhatsApp. We use that function to communicate as typing is usually far …
Hi, Having M.E sometimes turns me into a super sleuth. Just call me Miss Marple! Trying to work out exactly what has caused a symptoms flare can often be a fruitless task, purely because of the complex nature of our illness but sometimes the cause of discomfort can be nailed down and prevented.

Hi! Team Foggy and my new business Stripy Lightbulb’s Non-Executive Director Yvonne had a great time in London yesterday.

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 …
