Vice-President’s Report (continued)
We have a couple of interesting meetings coming up:
Get-to-Know-Each-Other Meeting
Saturday, July 21 – 12:15 for 12:30 at DIRC, 195 Gilles Street. Speaker: Judy Lovett. Bring a plate of food to share.
The Management Committee believe it is really important to continue to build a strong community within the society. To that end we want to a relaxed get-together, incorporating a meal. Over a shared lunch we can all get to know each other a little better.
Following lunch I have asked Judy Lovett to speak to us briefly about the National ME/CFS Association of Australia. I think it’s important we are kept informed with what they are doing, and its important we take an active interest.
There will be time to ask Judy questions, and the Management Committee. (STOP PRESS: This meeting will also be a good chance to explain the significance of the National Guidelines for CFS and the implications for persons with ME/CFS.)
Medical Seminar
August 11 – 1:10 for 1:30pm at the University of South Australia, Frome Road (full details here).
You may have heard about (or even taken part in) some new research being conducted in Adelaide – a partnership between the RAH and the QEH. These researchers are doing SPECT scans to study brain blood flow.
It must be stressed that this work is in its infant stages. Initial results are very promising with quite conclusive results for FM and ME/CFS sufferers. It seems there may be a distinct part of our brains, which isn’t receiving the blood flow it should – and FM and ME/CFS patients can be differentiated between each other.
Dr Rey Casse (RAH) will give us an overview of their research.
Dr Burnett is also working with Professor Scroop at Adelaide Uni gut function,
blood volume and bond density (once again, some of you may have been participants
in it). Dr Burnett will briefly update us on that too.
Please mark this one in your diary.
