We would like to convey our sincerest gratitude to Invest in ME for organising such a fantastic conference.
Without people like you, we and many, many others would be lost.
Thank you for caring and for wanting to make a difference in the lives of suffering people. You all deserve a medal!.

The conference was great and it was really a good feeling to be among others who are working for the same aim. It was also great to see and to hear all these medical researchers who are able to explain at least a good part of this illness and to have the occasion to speak to them.

To all at IiME
 
Thank you so much for another fantastic conference. It was a joy and a relief to be able to listen to people who are starting to understand the biomedical complexities of this condition. Some extremely interesting speakers this year.
 
We have to keep pushing and pushing. It goes without saying that your hard work is greatly appreciated.

What can I say? Wow and thank u yet again!
A super conference and well worth the effort to get there. Brilliant speakers, great programme.
Only 1 comment Judy Mikovits should have been on in the morning when the CMO and MRC were there to see what is happening elsewhere and be shamed for their own apathy and disinterest! When I was fit my brain and mouth worked like hers too!!!
I am forwarding a form/cheque for dvd and feedback form-forgot to leave them. We are still showing excerpts from 2007 dvd at our group meetings.

Fantastic! The best ME conference I have been to and thanks to Invest in ME for making the price so realistic for pwme. I learned so much from this day. Keep up the good work.

From Conference feedback form (from NHS professional) 23rd May 2008
 
I enjoyed it all - especially being given ideas that may be able to use in practice  and to be given ideas for where to look for future research to keep updated in CFS/ME practice. I have been able to gain a better understanding of CFS/ME and diagnostic criteria and changes to it. It is also very useful to be aware of research  that is going on and how practices differ in UK to USA. I hope to obtain some of articles/scales mentioned and see if any can be put into practice within our CFS/ME service.

From Conference feedback form (from a doctor) 23rd May 2008
 
Opened new lines for looking at literature references, in order to enhance research on CFS/ME.

I will start looking for gammaglubulins and their benefit with CFS (ME).

From Conference feedback form 23rd May 2008
 
It is encouraging to see how much research is taking place and how many great medical professionals are making towards diagnosis and more recognition. Having relatives with ME feels much like a solitary experience and it is good to come to an event where there are people who are experiencing the same thing.

Very good organisation of the event, wide variety of speakers and materials.
