💙 It's May 12th, International ME/CFS Awareness Day 💙
Also called World M.E. Day!
🧵 This thread talks about 4 things:
1. My ME/CFS story (brief)
2. Facts about ME/CFS and Long Covid
3. Helpful resources for patients (and friends/family)
4. Actions you can take to help folks with ME/CFS & Long Covid!
Some will be easy things anyone can do! 👍
Other actions (re: #Medicaid) are for US residents only.

My ME/CFS onset was in Jan 1990
🚨 Many recent ME/CFS cases have been triggered by COVID 🚨
In this thread I plan to post about 3 main things:
1. My ME/CFS story (briefly)
2. Helpful resources for patients and clinicians
3. Advocacy options for patients & allies (friends/family) - mostly US based
