NATIONAL M.E.CENTRE

That this House expresses concern that even after the Chief Medical Officer's report in January no resources have been allocated for research and treatment of ME - an illness that seriously affects the lives of more than one million sufferers, including children and adults with responsibilities for young families; further notes that ME is a disease with symptoms that include intense muscle and joint pains, headaches, irritable bowel syndrome, emotional and mental disturbances and serious loss of energy; and commends the work of Professor Findlay and Karen Walsh of the National ME Centre in Havering, which has operated as a support charity for the last 10 years.
