Commissioners have asked our Patient/Carer group to put together some GP awareness material to be disseminated at the CCG Training sessions.
Can you say a bit more about what the commisioners are actually wanting from you, and how receptive the GPs are going to be ?
One thing that does need to be made clear is that ME is NOT chronic "fatigue" or anxiety/depression or feeling a bit tired/run down or "fear of exercise" etc. They need to be told that press reports and many published papers are extremely misleading and that it is dangerous for ME patients to be given wrong advice based on these misleading ideas.
Perhaps a ref to the IOM and PACE critics might be useful too ?
