About ME/CFS Australia Ltd
We work to improve the lives of people with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS), a debilitating illness which affects the neurological, endocrine and immune systems of up to 250,000 Australians. One quarter of those are bed-ridden or housebound, hidden away behind closed doors - unable to participate in the workforce, community, family and social life.
We need your help to continue vital work to improve the situation and provide better support for ME/CFS sufferers and their families nationwide.
ME/CFS affects people of all ages from children to the elderly and can strike without warning. There is still no cure.
More money needs to be channelled into:
• raising awareness of the disease and providing information on how to better manage symptoms, live with it and minimise decline
• research into the disease
• advocacy to fix various support issues facing people with ME/CFS
• peer to peer and patient support through our relationships with state ME/CFS support organisations and nationally
• upgrading outdated clinical guidelines and training GPs in internationally accepted diagnosis and symptom management
With your help, we can give people with ME/CFS hope, updated information resources and advocate for much needed change.
