'Right support' sought for illnesses with shared symptoms
Those campaigning for a specialist service for people with ME say it could also help those with long covid access the 'right support'.
Both illnesses share symptoms including fatigue, muscle pain and exhaustion, and medics remain split on how to diagnose, treat, and support the conditions.
Government has yet to establish a specialist ME service, despite promises to do so by 2020.
Craig Morris, who has the illness, says dedicated help could also support those with long covid.
Windsurfer, Dave Wilson, has struggled with fatigue ever since contracting Covid-19 back in March, something he says has made him alter his active lifestyle.
