Why join ? We need people to work with us on this Campaign for a National ME / CFS clinic. We have explained the reasons for such a Clinic in the Why set up a Clinic section of our web-site. The only solution for ME / CFS patients in Ireland is to lobby for and obtain a national ME / CFS clinic which would use the successful diagnostic methods and treatments applied in the Cheney Clinic and other similar clinics and doctor's practises. These treatments have cured thousands of ME / CFS patients, this is medical and scientific fact. This Clinic would empower ME / CFS patients to take responsibility for their own health and pursue a course of treatment which would enable them to recover from ME / CFS. This is something which is real, tangible and achievable in the present.  
You will be assisting us in the following:
(i)  Lobby the Irish government, the Department of Health and the HSE to finance the building and operation of a National ME / CFS clinic in Ireland. This Clinic would use the diagnostic and treatment protocols used in the most successful ME / CFS Clinics such as the Cheney Clinic in the USA where thousands of patients have recovered from ME / CFS.

(ii) Lobby private foundations, wealthy philanthropists and business people to (a) finance our campaign for an ME / CFS Clinic  (b) make a financial contribution towards the site acquisition costs and building development costs of a National ME / CFS  Clinic. This would help get things moving and encourage the Irish government to become involved. Time is of the essence here as there are thousands of patients enduring terrible suffering and many are dying of complications caused by the illness - see Memorial section.

(iii) Lobby the Irish government, the Department of Health and the Irish Medicines Board to designate certain medical drugs  for the treatment of ME / CFS. These include Ampligen, Immunovir, Human Leukocyte Elastase inhibitors, MG132, Acclydine Therapy, Klonopin (generic: clonazepam), Olive Leaf extract (anti-viral), VegEPA and Naltrexone. These medical drugs have been proven to be very effective in treating ME / CFS in the USA, Canada, Britain, Belgium, and Mexico. Research articles have been provided on this web-site. This would empower Irish medical doctors to start treating the illness and bring about significant improvements in the symptoms and lives of ME / CFS patients.

(iv) Build up a national network of patients, carers and others to achieve the above objectives  ie. a National ME / CFS Clinic and the introduction of certain medical drugs into Ireland. This involves public meetings in several Irish towns and cities once a month and accompanying planning. Work activity by volunteers every week to achieve our objectives.

(v) Liaise with top CFS doctors, experts and researchers from around the world and learn more about their diagnostic and treatment protocols for ME / CFS, and how they operate successful ME / CFS clinics. 

(vi) Continuously gather and collate research into ME / CFS and provide it on the web-site for the benefit of all ME / CFS patients in Ireland and abroad.


We need your assistance and support to achieve this for all ME / CFS patients in Ireland today.
