Happy New Year! I hope you all had a restful festive break. I took a few weeks away from M.E. Foggy Dog’s work over the Christmas period to recharge, but as many of you know, the wheels never truly stop turning. Even while resting, my mind was busy reflecting on our journey and where we …
Hello! The Shake It UP next step is here! I ‘went live’ on YouTube earlier. You can watch the recording below (don’t forget to subscribe too so you don’t miss future content!). As I explained during the ‘live’, my own M.E. is currently causing me to not be able to function as well …
Hi All, As many of you already know, M.E. Foggy Dog had been campaigning since November 2021 with Shake It UP demanding the creation of a reporting system to report adverse events from non-pharmaceutical ‘treatments.

Until now. I wrote to the Care Quality Commission (ENGLAND) on the 15th November …
Hi, I don’t know about you but, for me, 2021 flew by! I’ve not kept track of what month we are in throughout the entire year! It’s all been very same-y and seasons have all blended from one to the other. I haven’t had the usual Foggy ‘milestones’ to judge where I’m at. This is …
