"So you're basically tired all the time?" No, it's #notjustfatigue.

In this episode of That Chronic Thing, Cathy chats with Elizabeth Ansell (Founder, Executive Director) of notjustfatigue.org, a site dedicated to the education and advocacy of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, or ME/CFS, an extremely debilitating illness.

→ 75% of those affected are unable to attend school or work (note: this includes your host and guest!)

→ 25% are completely homebound or bedbound (note: this also includes your host and guest!)

→ There are no FDA approved treatments, biomarkers, or diagnostic tests.

→ There are over 60 symptoms, it's #notjustfatigue.

→ 45% of the Long COVID community fit the case definition for ME/CFS.

The multimedia website is a wonderful destination for those wanting to learn more about ME/CFS past, present, and future. It is a great resource for those with ME/CFS who are wanting to educate their friends and family when they say, "so you're basically tired all the time?" No, it's #notjustfatigue.
