I am a physician (MD) and I have Myalgic Encephalomyelitis. I created this blog to try to help others with this disease which can truly be devastating. At this point I am far too ill to help people in the traditional sense of being a doctor (seeing and treating patients), but I hope I can help people by educating them further regarding ME, helping them navigate a healthcare system that does not understand ME, and by pointing people towards other helpful resources I have found. If you are interested you can check out my post on how I presented with ME here.
At this point I wish to remain anonymous for a number of reasons but that could change in the future depending how things work out and my own health. Due to the fact that I am a physician I also have to include a disclaimer: anything I say in this blog is my own personal opinion and will undoubtedly change over time; this blog does not establish a doctor-patient relationship; nothing written here is specific medical advice for anyone; any changes to your treatment should always be handled by you and your personal physician.
