Hi all, I just wanted to reach out to let you know we’ve just passed 8,354 signatures on our petition! Thank you so much for your support!  Each vote increases the impact on the voice of those suffering from myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME).

It is important to continue our campaign for the recognition of properly defined ME, distinct from fatguing conditions.  In this light, we would like to recommend the organization ME International.  ME International is a volunteer run ME advocacy organization.  Their Position Paper aligns with the demands of our petition.  Like our petition, they recommend the International Consensus Criteria (ICC) for defining ME and the IC Primer as guidance to Medical Practitioners.

Their website contains crucial information about ME and serves as a great education tool.  You can join the free membership here and their Facebook page here.

Please continue to share this petition to gain impact for myalgic encephalomyelitis. https://www.change.org/p/the-us-department-of-health-and-human-services-cdc-adopt-the-distinct-disease-myalgic-encephalomyelitis-me-as-defined-by-icc-now
