Hi
I’m organizing the Oxford event but my contact info is: [email protected] instead of .com.
Please change this when you get a chance.
Thanks in advance! It’s all look amazing!
Lara
Thanks Lara! I’ll fix that straightaway. 🙂

Thank you so much!
Retha Viviers
How exciting! I will be sure to add you to the list. 😀
I have made these chants/ slogans if any of the organisers want to use them for any of the millions missing protests , and by ME Acrion themselves for any posters to express protest aims and key issues as seen fit .
Chant :
First do no Harm !
No more CBT and GET
No more ME patient deaths
No More !
Dr Mark Van Ness, proves the harms of GET
The Workwell Foundation, proves we arnt faking
Damaged aerobic system . When will you listen
We don’t have fear . The science is clear
We’re fighting for our lives , biological treatment is denied
NICE recommend CBT and GET , because it costs the NHS less
Patients have to go private , the GMC remains silent
GMC, stop looking the other way , it is time for change
GMC , update the education of our GPs , so they stop ignoring patients needs
People with ME , can’t get treatment for Free
People with ME die , because investigations are denied
NICE , stop ignoring the Facts , give psychiatrists the sack
AHRQ review , Says CBT and GET have no proof
Remove ME from the static list NICE , stop ignoring biological researchers advice
NICE needs more than Psychs
Psychologists don’t have the skill set, to study a mutisystemic disease
If you ignore biological research , your not an ME Expert !
The research is there , but NICE doesn’t care
Recommending GET is Medical Neglect
CBT and GET , are not the only options left
Treat the biochemistry , that underline the biological abnormalities
NHS , POTS is not an alternative diagnosis , Orthostatic Intolerance is in the IOM diagnostic criteria
NICE stop refusing to test for Orthostatic Intolerance .
The NIH says get rid of the Oxford criteria . Use diagnostic criteria that is superior
Stop calling ME , CFS .
ME is a mutisystemic disease not a syndrome
The Biophycosocial model doesn’t work , when you ignore the biological Research !
GPS , Not informing of harms of GET….. is breaking Uk law on consent !
GPs , that follow NICE , don’t follow the Science
GPS , don’t be caught short , read the IOM report
GPs , put NICE Guidelines back . Learn the research Facts .
GPS , Get Invest in ME , DVD , it counts toward your CPD
Pediatric and Adult ME , have no proven difference , says the GMC
biological ab- nor – mal – li- ties , are not corrected with CBT
A multisystem disease, is not corrected with CBT
Mitochondrial dysfunction is not corrected , with CBT and GET
The gut microbiome is not corrected ,with CBT and GET
Methylation function is not corrected , with CBT and GET
A damaged aerobic system is not corrected , with CBT and GET
Chronic bacterial and viral infection is not corrected with CBT and GET
Toxicity is not corrected with CBT and GET
First do no Harm !
No more CBT and GET
No more ME patient deaths
No More !
