Petition ME/CFS patients to receive professional assessment and care from the NHS and for GP's to regulate their opinions on the condition.

More details

Too many doctors are turning a blind-eye to the Disability knows as Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

Sufferers are being told by Professionals that it isn't real, "stop attention seeking", "It's all in your head", etc.

This needs to stop. The NHS needs to recognize this as a form of bullying for a devastating condition where the patient does not have to struggle and hope for treatment, instead this needs to be acknowledged as a requirement and due to the nature of the condition the correct treatment should not be a difficult to obtain.
