I am shaving my head to raise funds and awareness for my illness CFS/ME. All funds will go towards the support program being run here in NZ.

Bay of Plenty

Myalgic Encephalopathy/?Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

ME/CFS is an illness which leaves sufferers exhausted after minimal activity and is characterised by many different symptoms. It usually follows a viral illness (such as glandular fever) and may persist long term.

ME/CFS is starting to come under autoimmune-neuroinflammatory with the latest research.

Changes in the immune system in response to the initial infection cause the typical flu-like symptoms such as fever, sore throat, swollen glands, muscle and joint pains, headaches, mental sluggishness, sleep disturbance and extreme fatigue.

Bradley Simmonds' involvement (page creator)

I'm involved in raising funds for CFS/ME because I am a sufferer and wish to strengthen the resources and support for all those with the illness.
