ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
With thanks.
I would like to dedicate this
book as a very big thank you to every single person who helped me in a positive
and supportive way during the time that I was ill. I encountered many people on
my journey through the illness and into recovery who have helped enormously in
their own individual way.
Thank you also to all of the
medical and scientific researchers who have been working hard investigating and
finding the physical abnormalities in ME/CFS and whose work is vital in guiding
clinicians toward correct treatment of ME/CFS as a physical disease.
And last but not least a big
thank you to everyone who has encouraged me so wonderfully to write this book
and keep on going with it to get it finished!
In Memory.
I also write this book in memory
of Sophia Mirza, Lynn Gilderdale, Emily Collingridge and every single sufferer
who fought the disease and the misunderstanding of it so courageously, but
sadly died too young with ME/CFS.
I now pick up from them and move forward to continue to raise awareness
of the disease in the hope to make a positive change in the lives of all with
ME/CFS by releasing my medical test results and the medical treatment which led
directly to my recovery along with other information I discovered.
