Happily married. Fighting to get through one day at a time. 43 years with M.E., hEDS, POTS, COPD, Fibromyalgia, Osteoarthritis, Scoliosis, Reynauds, and a whole heap of other crap. I've no quality of life, mostly bedbound and hate it.
I just signed the campaign calling on Prime Minister Keir Starmer: Do not allow the USA to use British military bases for strikes on Iran, and give MPs a vote in Parliament. act.38degrees.org.uk/act/Do-not-a...
Can you do me a quick favour today? ✍️
The government is finally asking if they should ban cages for hens in the UK. 🐔🐔 Lobbyists are trying to block it, so we need huge numbers to show them that the public wants this ban NOW: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/en...
The Representation of the People Bill is a rare chance to renew our democracy - yet it ignores the voting system driving chaos and disillusionment.
We need MPs standing up for fair votes in this upcoming debate. Urge your MP to attend: actionnetwork.org/letters/repr...

We deserve better.

I've joined @cancerresearchuk.org's campaign to call for a #TurningPointForCancerInWales this election.
Will you add your name as well?

They keep calling it CFS. Interviewees just sounded tired. No talk of very serious symptoms, death. No talk of NICE not adopting the learning of private practice. No talk of financial ruin vs paltry welfare. No talk of Sir Gaslighter General's career being ended.

This is a good discussion on #ME and I’m grateful to all involved. However (!) I do wish that the situation that we know exists within hospitals had been highlighted to illustrate just how important ongoing compulsory education and funding for treatment is.
It will be a great day when, amongst the terrible harms caused by the elite, the names of the BPS cabal are included. The whole murky history of #ME exposed. Misogyny, fraud and lies caused many of us to be unable to leave our beds for decades and suffer abuse throughout.
Jeez, I've slept way longer than that when I've crashed!
Are you watching Dirty Business? I can't believe how much water companies have gotten away with. They're putting profit before public health - it’s a scandal and the Government MUST take action! Sick of sewage? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/en...

The profits of business in the UK are so high that they could employ every single one of the 2.1m unemployed people in the UK.
And pay them £300,000 each.
But still they tell you there is 'no money' to employ people.
Another young woman is at risk of being starved to death in an NHS hospital, but thank god none of her (usually male) consultants have to learn something new, or heaven forbid, rethink their prejudices about #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis. #MECFS

Right now, the Government is entering into trade negotiations with the EU. We must ensure these negotiations do not create barriers to progress towards a #FurFreeBritain.

Not only has the NHS not learned from Maeve's death, they're repeating the neglect currently with Karen and Savannah.
Any further ME deaths should be classed as corporate manslaughter, they're just not willing to learn how to provide care for us. I feel it won't be long before I'm next.
I've been ill with ME since 1983 but I've never felt as ill as I do now. Watching 5 couples ice skating from the Olympics whilst laid down has done me in. Dizzy, blurred eyesight, feeling extremely sick, limbs feel like lead and brain feels full of sludge. PEM's never hit this quickly before 😭😭
I wish!!
