If you're a US resident you can add your story to #MEAction’s story bank.

They want stories from patients, caregivers, friends & family, healthcare providers, disability advocates - anyone who wants to contribute!

They particularly need stories from folks who rely on Medicaid.

You can remain anonymous if you like. Your story can include photos or video (optional)

Today is #MEAwarenessDay and while I spend every day painfully aware of the limitations this disease imposes on me, perhaps you haven't thought about it. Today is a great day to learn. Anyone can be affected by ME, and I'm one of those #MillionsMissing.

OK, I'm gonna take a rest break!

I'm trying to avoid PEM (post-exertional malaise), aka PESE (post-exertional symptom exacerbation)

Pacing is hard! It often fails due to some unplanned exertion which can't be avoided. And sometimes adrenaline takes over when I should be resting.

In short, it's easy to do too much and crash. Fact sheet about PEM:

I'll be back later today! 😁

What does #MillionsMissing mean?

Even mild cases of ME/CFS cause significant loss. So people with ME/CFS are "missing" from work, socializing, exercise, etc.

Moderate cases cause more loss so that people can rarely leave the house.

People with severe cases are in bed, rarely able to intereact with anyone.

As ME/CFS gets worse a person's life shrinks more and more.

The attached comic is by Kornelia Paulsen.

If you learn nothing else from my thread today, please remember this:

🚨 Exercise is NOT recommended for people with ME/CFS!

Any exertion, mental or physical, is not good for people who have post-exertional malaise (PEM), sometimes called post-exertional symptom exacerbation (PESE)

This includes a significant portion of people with Long Covid.

My story:

I caught an unknown virus in Dec 1989. I thought I'd recovered then new symptoms started in Jan. Got worse & took my first medical leave in March 1990.

Went to dozens of doctors. Finally got a diagnosis in 1995. I kept working, taking medical leaves as needed, but finally got too sick to work at all in 2000.

Pushing myself all those years led to a permanent worsening of my condition!

Not a good idea! 😔

I'll start by explaining that ME/CFS (name used by most groups in the USA) stands for "myalgic encephalomyelitis / chronic fatigue syndrome"

Here are two links with an overview of ME/CFS

1) "What is ME?" from #MEAction

https://www.meaction.net/what-is-me

2) "Introduction to ME/CFS" from the Science for ME forum

https://www.s4me.info/threads/science-for-me-fact-sheets.43310/#post-596527

Many folks w/ Long Covid have similar symptoms, some meet the ME/CFS diagnostic criteria

The #MEAction Millions Missing theme this year is "Frail & Furious"

Why frail?

New Medicaid rules in the US will force people with ME/CFS and Long COVID to work 80 hours per month or lose their government health insurance *unless* they get a "medically frail" exemption.

Help protect Medicaid access by signing this letter to the HHS Secretary:
