Sufferer speaks of her struggle
An ME sufferer on the Island has been telling Manx Radio about her personal experience with the condition.
Joan has lived with it for the past 13 years or so.
She has decided to tell her story, after hearing Manx Radio's interview with Dr Charles Shepherd this week.
Dr Shepherd, medical advisor to the British ME Association, has said misdiagnosis, and a lack of effective on-Island support is hindering sufferers.
Joan told Ed Oldham these are things she has experienced herself:
Complaints to Manx Care rise sharply, as oversight report urges cultural reform
Reducing hospitality VAT would 'directly affect' provision of frontline services
Bishop important to the Island, admits Ramsey MHK
No conversations with UK over a reduction in VAT rates for hospitality businesses planned
