uk.people.support.cfs-me

UPSCM is self-help group providing support, information and a forum for discussion for people who have CFS/ME and their carers (mainly in the UK).
Now this is one of the News groups that I have mentioned. It is a web site in it's own right, where you can see who else is a member of UPSCM, get details of the UPSCM charter and more. The best way to get the most use out of UPSCM is via a News Reader. Find uk.people.support.cfs-me on your news server and subscribe to it, if it's not on your news server ask for it to be added (most Internet service providers have this facility).
You don't have to jump in and start posting straight away, I lurked (for want of a better word) around it a few weeks at first before I posted anything. There will be someone along to give you an official welcome when you do decide to make your first post.
You will meet plenty of others who are going through the same as you on this News group, so if you do feel all alone or are having a "bad day" why not give it a try. You might even make a new friend.

CHROME

What is Chrome and what does it do ? I hear you ask, well the intro to this site says it all. CHROME (Case History Research on Myalgic Encephalomyelitis) is a registered charity set up in 1994 to identify as many severely disabled ME sufferers as possible in the UK and to monitor the course of their illness over a period of ten years. The statistical data from this study will be analysed and used to supplement medical research in important ways.
A good site this, lots of good information. What is M.E.? What is Chrome? go here and you will find the answers to those questions, along with a host of other useful bits of information.

SupportME

This site has been included not so much for it's content, which is good anyway, but for the fact that it can give hope to others who suffer with M.E./C.F.S as it was established and is run by a recovering sufferer. So hurrah for that as it means that some people do get better which is something we should all aspire to, even if on some days we think that it is never going to happen.
There is a glut of information here, an ME/CFS Guide, ME/CFS News and the best part I found was the Library section, where there is a lot of articles to view. The only bit I wasn't keen on was the shop for buying " Nutritional Supplements" which is unnecessary in my opinion.
