The Support Network is here to help people in the Lochaber area whose lives are affected
by the illness PVFS / CFS / M.E. *
We are a friendly and down-to-earth group who aim
to help both people with the illness and their carers, families and friends.
Being
a grass-roots group, we're not medically trained and don't give medical advice, however
we can provide information and members can share tips on what's worked for them.
Our members range from those who are mildly affected to people who are housebound
and severely ill. We hope you find the information on this website useful.
What is PVFS / CFS / ME? Our leaflet might answer your questions.
* Post Viral Fatigue Syndrome (PVFS), Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) and Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (M.E.) are all names for what is probably the same debilitating and poorly understood illness.
We currently meet for a cuppa and a chat on the first Tuesday of every month, 3 –
4 pm at
The Isles of Glencoe Hotel, Ballachulish, PH49 4HL
