Everything from CFSACs failure to act on recommendations, CDC refusing to update content and acknowledge PEM, lack of NIH funding year over year, IOM, P2P, FDA not approving ampligen, how Ian Lipkin can get a 31 million dollar NIH grant for translational research, yet has been refused funding twice to study the microbiome in ME/CFS--leaving patient to have to fund the 1 million+ dollars for the study. Seriously, ME/CFS is a posterchild for a system that does not work! Unfortunately I don't have recommendations for solutions except maybe using ME/CFS as a case study of how NOT to provide 21st century care let alone cures.
