It’s something I’ve said for years, my M.E often feels like I over-indulged the night before and I’m suffering for it. The issue I have with that is that M.E has brought about an intolerance to alcohol and has severely restricted my social life. I can’t remember the last time I had the opportunity to …
Hello! Foggy is snoring softly in Foggy HQ this morning, I’m letting him have a bit of a lie-in. He’s fidgeting so I know he’s dreaming about squirrel chasing! I’m making the most of the peace and quiet by writing this blog. As you know, I am in the process of setting up an online training …
Hi, I had a new symptom start around 6 months ago and, because of the infamous being ‘fobbed off’ incident, it was only investigated this week. Here’s what has been going on. I started to get pain in my right breast that could have been caused by any number of factors. I assumed it would …
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.

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.

Many M.E …
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, 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 …
Hello, I wrote this blog in 2016 (was it really that long ago?!) and I seem to be in exactly the same situation. I am recovering from another broken foot/toe and my eyes are playing up AGAIN. My double vision started again 3 months ago, it’s sporadic and so I haven’t really thought much about it but …
Hi, Well, it has certainly been an eventful 36 hours! I would like to apologise to my parents for wrecking their Sunday afternoon. We were all cosied up in our living room, all set for an afternoon of Christmas movies. I was having a payback day so was in the mood to be a sloth …
