Abhijit also advises the MEA on clinical and research matters relating to neurology

Thank you very much for that...I'm certainly tempted to make an appointment. It's always a matter of where best to channel the funds for maximum benefit and progress...I'm also thinking about going the route of Prof. De Meirleir.
Can I just mention that I listened to Kaye Adam's recent Radio Scotland programme on ME and I was silently applauding the points you made! The programme deserved to be much longer as so much more needed to be said about this shockingly neglected illness. Or should I say 'invisible' illness, certainly in Scotland.
That's great. Would love to hear how you get on.
