*SPECIAL REQUEST FOR MA RESIDENTS*
Join us in making our voices heard!
With the appearance of Long COVID, other illnesses like ME/CFS, POTS, Dysautonomia, and Fibromyalgia are finally getting more attention and understanding. Medical professionals and people in government are recognizing the links between Long COVID and other infection-associated chronic conditions.
Now is the time for us to start approaching our legislators who decide what issues will be a focus and what causes will receive funding. There are MassME members who have already written to their state legislators and met with them, or spoken to legislative aides.
You can make a difference!

Notice about names
The Massachusetts ME/CFS & FM Association would like to clarify the use of the various acronyms for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), Chronic Fatigue & Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (CFIDS) and Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME) on this site. When we generate our own articles on the illness, we will refer to it as ME/CFS, the term now generally used in the United States. When we are reporting on someone else’s report, we will use the term they use. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) and other federal agencies, including the CDC, are currently using ME/CFS.
Massachusetts ME/CFS & FM Association changed its name in July, 2018, to reflect this consensus.
