Eye Problems With M.E./C.F.S. – New Symptom!

Clumsiness and Broken Bones!

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 …

M.E. Pain – Describing the Indescribable

Hi, One subject that I am unable to talk about is that of M.E pain. It isn’t something I have any experience of….well, apart from a new development in the form of constant sharp pain in my little and fourth toes on my left foot (POSSIBLY M.E. relatedem>). This new pain does not make me …

Pain Caused by M.E./C.F.S. and Other Conditions

Hi, Throughout Foggy’s life I have made a point of saying I am lucky enough to not suffer from M.E./C.F.S chronic pain. However, things have started to change over the past 3 months. I am currently undergoing tests and physio to try to deal with an extremely painful right arm. RSI, Carpal Tunnel and Tendonitis …
