Post-polio case misdiagnosed as ME

From the Henley Standard

This news story yet again illustrates the need for doctors to carry out a thorough clinical assessment – involving history, examination and blood tests – before a diagnosis of ME/CFS is confirmed.  The medical procedure for doing so is described in detail in section 6 (Diagnostic Assessment) of ‘ME/CFS/PVFS  An Exploration of the Key Clinical Issues’ – the MEA guidance for health professionals.
