This is such a hard illness to understand! I have cousin who went on disability for it in her early twenties. I need to read this book because I feel inside that I have a bias. I don’t like bias without knowledge!

You’re not alone in feeling bias. But you show consideration in your desire to learn about the reality of this condition. Many in the medical profession still view ME with scepticism, in spite of the fact that it has now been cited as a cause of death by coroners and the WHO recognises it as a very real problem.
I have been very fortunate in that I have fully recovered (a rare event) and can now lead a normal life again. The condition tends to attack only those who have lead an active life. To celebrate my recovery after I retired from the part time work, which was all I could manage for the ten years of my illness, I trained for and completed a half marathon.
If you do buy and read the book, please consider reviewing it; just a few words can help others decide whether it will be a help for them.
Thank you.
