This study just recently started. I am enrolled in it as an ME/CFS patient. They are still looking for healthy subjects who do not live with and who are unrelated to ill participants. There will be 100 subjects in the study - 25 from each group.

A research study for people who have Systemic Lupus, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Chronic Lyme Disease and HEALTHY VOLUNTEERS in Vancouver
Description
Are you interested in participating in a research study for patients with Systemic Lupus, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Chronic Lyme Disease?
There are several long-lasting diseases leading to disability. These include Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS), and Chronic Lyme Disease (CLD). You are being invited to participate in the CCD study that will further investigate these illnesses and their causes.
The study will be comparing participants with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) and Chronic Lyme Disease (CLD) to participants who are disease free or have been diagnosed with Systemic Lupus (SLE).
We are looking for healthy participants (ESPECIALLY WOMEN 55-80) as well as participants who fit the following criteria:
• Have been diagnosed with Systemic Lupus (SLE), Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) or Lyme Disease
• Age 19 or older
• Understand English
• Do not have another medical condition that fully explains main symptoms
Your participation is voluntary. If you are eligible and agree to take part it will involve up to 3 visits to Vancouver General Hospital. These include a screening visit with blood work, one clinic visit involving a physical exam and blood work and potentially one more clinic visit. You will also be asked to complete several short questionnaires at home.
There will be some compensation for participating in this study and you can receive reimbursement for parking or bus fare from within the lower mainland.
If you are interested, please contact the clinical research coordinator at sparker@cheos.ubc.ca or 604-682-2344 X 62492
