Received a letter from the NHS Neurologist I spoke to about my daughter in which he describes her as having ‘a label of ME/CFS’ and in the same para mentions the difficulty in separating ‘functional’ neurological symptoms from organic neuro damage. Nigel Speight was spot on.

This is not to concern you in any way I was diagnosed with the US version CFS in 1985. It was not CFS it was not depression it was a rare blood disease. And now I'm dying from it and all of the cascading awful that came from it including psych meds for things I didn't have.

My beloved colleagues set up a GoFundMe and saved me from homelessness from no medicine that was really the good medicine I needed and in the US it's not covered of course and very expensive. When I get some funds I shall pay it forward. Your daughter has a great advocate in you!
