Do people understand or just don't care ?

Hi it's Bex again smile

The past few weeks I've been getting a bit down, I'm not sure if it's just me who's feeling sorry for myself or not. I've only told a few people about my ME/CFS and they just treat me like I'm being lazy or making excuses for myself. If I feel really tired or have a bad day, I want them to understand how I'm feeling, that's all. Sympathy is not what I want, I just want them to understand. Am I being unfair ?

    Hi Sharon49

    hope you get this post as I do not understand what has happened to the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome folk??? I tried to join the new self help group but nothing comes through. I am very interested in your breathlessness and wonder what your docs found as I have now been diagnosed with Pulmonary Fibrosis and I am seriously wondering if it is connectd to the Glandular fever and CFS I have suffered for many years

    love to hear from you
