Hi Everybody,
I was exploring online and came across an interesting resource on improving healthcare. There's a group called the Society to Improve Diagnosis in Medicine. Seems like this is right up our alley, with our troubles with getting misdiagnosed with depression, or functional neurologic diseases of whatever, from people that don't understand how to diagnose ME/CFS.
Anyway, they have a patient stories section on their website where patients can send in their stories of misdiagnosis. If you'd like to contribute, the link is here: https://www.improvediagnosis.org/tell-us-your-story/
I think this would be a good way for us to educate healthcare people, if anyone has the inclination.
There's also grant money available if you can figure a way to reduce diagnostic error.
Check it out!
