The MESiG petition for a clinic was presented to the Welsh Government on Tues 16th Sep with a demonstration on the steps of the Senedd building. It will be considered by the Petitions Committee on Tues 23rd Sep.
Petition:
We call upon the National Assembly for Wales to urge the Welsh Government to ensure that a dedicated Consultant/Clinic and medical support team for Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (M.E.), Chronic Fatigue Syndrome & Fibromyalgia sufferers is set up in South East Wales. I request that this petition be treated as an official voice of M.E. sufferers, their families, carers and interested parties.
Currently, sufferers of the above ailments are not being supported, with a few exceptions, by the medical profession. They are unable to work but the government bodies assessing them do not appear to understand their problems. This is the basis for this petition.
Petition raised by: M.E.S.I.G. (M.E Support in Glamorgan)
Number of signatures: 368 electronic signatures and 826 paper signatures. Total 1,196
