Hi, I have a very painful right side of my body and no doctor has ever been able to put their finger on what caused it or why it has been long-term pain. Let me explain. I had skin cancer back in 2012, it was a very ‘not bad-looking mole’ that didn’t look quite right …
Hi, The subject of loneliness is a hot topic at the moment. MPs are getting involved, many local cafes in Portsmouth are holding ‘Loneliness dining’ for people who need support and some company. The subjects of inclusion and loneliness made me think about how M.E affects us in terms of loneliness. I wrote a blog …
Hello! Sally is going to attempt to write about the difference between Fibromyalgia and ME/CFS. The illnesses are very similar and often get confused…here goes! She has brain fog today so this could be interesting! Love Foggy xx Hi, Since Foggy started in 2014, I have made no secret of the fact that biology is …
Morning, Before creating ME Foggy Dog I was clueless about the illness, despite being a sufferer myself. After 3 years of tests and being given the run-around, I was given the label I had been seeking…I finally knew what was wrong with me!! A locum had been so blase about the illness that I didn’t …
Hi, Shocking confession coming up…… When I started ME Foggy Dog I knew NOTHING about M.E. Well, nothing apart from my own personal symptoms, many of which had never been explained by doctors as being part of M.E.

Hello, Sometimes, reading other people’s accounts of their M.E experience is like reading a foreign language. In the 10 years since my diagnosis, I have only ever received a CBT referral. Despite having a wide range of symptoms, for which there are specialists, I have never been referred. So when other M.E sufferers talk about …
Hi, How many of us have visited chiropractors, dentists, physios etc and been fobbed off with ‘Of course that happens, it’s your M.E’? It’s happened to me hundreds of times! I’m writing this blog because it seems bizarre to me that we are always being told that the healthcare profession either doesn’t believe it’s a …
Hi, This post is about a visit to my dentist yesterday, I felt fine when I arrived at the dental surgery but half an hour of sitting in a waiting room that was so bright it was as if it had come from the film Close Encounters of the Third Kind, I felt as if …
Apologies, I have had to take my eye off the M.E. ball for the past 6 days. I have been doing the bare minimum for Foggy and I feel bad for it. As you may or may not be aware, my dad has been exceptionally ill since Monday and his diagnosis required ambulances, A & …
