A long time advocate and sufferer of ME, Dr Anne McIntyre, died on Saturday 24th November 2018.  She had been living with rheumatoid arthritis for many years and developed pulmonary fibrosis as a complication of that.

Her book M.E. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: a practical guide was written in the 1990s but is still considered by many to be one of the most helpful.

She will be remembered for her compassion and willingness to help, and for her work as advisor to the ME Association, and writing and speaking about ME.

Read tributes by Dr Charles Shepherd and her friend Jenny Wilson.

Watch Frontline documentary, presented by Dr McIntyre and featuring the Gilderdale family and Ean Proctor.
