In this episode Dr Cathy Stephenson and Rose Silvester discuss the impact of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) on young people.

ME/CFS is a poorly understood, yet relatively common medical condition, that can profoundly affect the lives of those who suffer from it. Sadly for decades myths have persisted around the aetiology and pathophysiology of ME/CFS, with many health providers historically even doubting its existence, and confusion still reigns when it comes to an evidence-based approach to management. So here to unpick some of the myths, and help us with an approach to assessing and supporting young people who develop ME/CFS are Dr Cathy Stephenson, a GP who has developed a special interest in the condition, and Rose Silvester, a mum of two teenage boys who are affected by it. We are also delighted to have special guest to give us insight.
