The Consensus Documents for ME/CFS and FMS are clinical milestones in the fight against these complex and often debilitating illnesses. The National ME/FM Action Network wishes to thank all the members of the Expert Consensus Panels, and their Consensus Coordinator, Marjorie van de Sande, our Director of Education, for all the time and effort put into these documents. We also wish to thank our Members for their constant support and encouragement to see these documents to fruition.
