M.E. written question in House of Lords

28 January 2011

The Countess of Mar tabled a question in the House of Lords yesterday, 27 January, due for written answer by 10 February.

The Countess asked Her Majesty’s Government: “How many NHS Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Service Centres are fully functional; what percentage of patients referred with M.E./CFS are subsequently found to have fatigue associated with other chronic conditions; and what measures are in place to ensure that patients with chronic fatigue are effectively screened for other relatively rare diseases before they are given a diagnosis of M.E./CFS.”
