ME Awareness Week Recap

For ME Awareness Week 2025, we shared infographics raising awareness about the debilitating nature of ME/CFS, but also about the research being conducted to tackle the symptoms associated with the disease. For ease of access, we have collated these postings into one article.

Post-exertional malaise Post-exertional malaise (PEM), the hallmark feature of ME/CFS, is the worsening of symptoms (and potential appearance of new symptoms) following minimal physical or mental exertion. It typically occurs 24 – 72 hours following the triggering event but may occur sooner. PEM can significantly reduce the level of activity/functioning of an individual with ME/CFS, and can last for several days, weeks, or longer.
