My son became moderately ill with ME/CFS in 2015 when he was 13.We had regular support and advice from the ME/CFS paediatric service but he plateaued after a year or so and was told that the condition would always be there.
He improved significantly when we used a private online recovery program and he finished his recovery after applying the insights he gained from a Mickle therapist, who he saw for 3 sessions in 2023, aged 21. He is now 24 and remains well but when under stress, his brain sends messages in the form of symptoms. He can now recognise what’s going on and addresses the stress. The symptoms go within hours.
I qualified as an occupational therapist in 1984 from the Liverpool School of occupational therapy. I then worked in General and Community hospitals, special schools, a neurology ward for 10 years, and laterally in a community physical rehab team for people with post-Covid and long Covid.
I now have set up a community group for those affected with Chronic Fatigue Symptoms.
