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:
Manx Care reports major drop in dental waiting lists
Police 'disappointed' to find more than half of vehicles with defects in latest winter checks
More coastal overtopping expected today
Poppy Appeal underway ahead of Remembrance Sunday and Armistice Day
