The Swedish National Association for ME Patients (RME) arranged in the autumn of 2015 the conference "The invisible ones – A conference on severe ME/CFS and the way forward", in Stockholm, Sweden Monday the 19th of October and in Gothenburg, Sweden Thursday the 22nd of October.

ME/CFS (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) is a neurological disease characterized by longterm and severely disabling fatigue in combination with numerous other symptoms.

Research has shown that there are grouplevel deviations in the neural, immune and hormone systems within this group of patients.

The degree of illness can vary from mild, with slight functional disability, to more severe cases where the patient is completely housebound or bedbound.

Approximately 40 000 people are believed to suffer from ME/CFS in Sweden.
