Health Information

M.E. Support — Launched in 2001, M.E. Support is one of the leading Websites on Myalgic Encephalomyelitis providing information, advice and support. M.E. is little-known and often misunderstood but it is an extensive and debilitating neurological disease.

Co-Cure.org — A website and mailing list established to further co-operative efforts toward finding the cure for the illness commonly referred to as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) and Fibromyalgia (FM). Because of the overlap in symptom profiles, they also welcome as members those individuals interested in or affected by Multiple Chemical Sensitivity, Gulf War Syndrome, and auto-immune conditions. However, at least at this time, they limit the nature of the information suitable for posting to that which is directly relevant to CFS and FM. This is an excellent information-only source (i.e. it is not a discussion group) for breaking news, medical journal abstracts, and generally relevant announcements.
