The Solve ME/CFS Initiative has created an infographic to demonstrate the severity of the physical symptoms experienced by the millions of ME sufferers worldwide.
The graphic demonstrates that ME/CFS has the core features of major diseases, such as Stage 2 Alzheimer’s, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s and cancer after one week of chemotherapy. Unlike ME/CFS, however, all of those illnesses have available FDA-approved treatments and are viewed as debilitating physical diseases by both health care practitioners and the general public.
