InvisibleFatigue

InvisibleFatigue provides clear, accessible information on long-term health conditions that are often misunderstood and poorly served by mainstream health content. Our guides are written for people living with these conditions, their families, and the people supporting them.

The conditions we cover

ME/CFS — a long-term neurological condition that affects energy, cognition, and daily function. Our guides cover symptoms, diagnosis, pacing, and management.

Fibromyalgia — a long-term condition involving widespread pain, fatigue, and sleep difficulties. We cover symptoms, diagnosis, pain management, and daily life.

Long Covid — a post-viral condition that can develop after COVID-19 infection, causing persistent fatigue, cognitive symptoms, and multi-system effects. We cover symptoms, diagnosis, recovery approaches, and managing daily life.

Our approach

Our content is based on established medical guidelines, patient charities, and peer-reviewed research. We aim to present information in plain language, while respecting the complexity of these conditions and the lives of the people living with them.
