ABOUT US
Owner's Story
Misty Roberts is the owner of this web site. She is not a health professional, but a
concerned citizen and a CMP, FM, CFS/ME patient for the last 35 years.
The FM/CFS/ME RESOURCES story begins in the summer of 1977, when at the age of 17,
Misty Roberts began having unexplained pain and trouble walking. Misty spent the next
11 years going to doctors of every specialty in an attempt to find an answer. After
numerous tests, the conclusion was always the same:
"There's nothing physically wrong with you."
In the winter of 1988, Misty was finally diagnosed with a
severe form of Fibromyalgia (FM). A few months later she was also diagnosed with
CFS/ME. She immediately began researching these often misunderstood and debilitating
conditions and found that there very little reliable information online. She felt that
patients and health care providers needed a resource for information that was helpful and
easily accessible.
FM/CFS/ME RESOURCES
In the spring of 1997, after teaching herself to use the computer and make a web site,
Misty created FM/CFS/ME RESOURCES. Using her 35 years of experience with Fibromyalgia
and CFS/ME, Misty has dedicated the last 15 years to providing research, support and
education. She also provides resources for finding doctors, disability attorneys and
support groups worldwide.
Mission
My mission has always been straightforward: to provide support, education, and
informational resources to people with FM and CFS/ME, the medical community and anyone
who'd like to learn more. I strive to keep you up to date on medical news and research
as well as continuing to provide coping tips and treatments for
the FM and CFS/ME patient and carer.
Funding
Misty does all the work on the FM/CFS/ME RESOURCES alone and free of charge. FM/CFS/ME
RESOURCES accepts NO funding or donations of ANY Kind.
Advertising
One thing you might notice about FM/CFS/ME RESOURCES is the lack of pop-up ads and
advertising in general. My Website does not host any form of advertisement. I don't
believe in using my readers and members for profit.
Site/Privacy Policy
Our privacy policy is simple; I NEVER share your private
information with anyone....EVER! I understand and respect your need for privacy.
