Jennifer Brea



Jennifer Brea is a Myalgic Encephalomyelitis patient and ME and CFS advocate. She and Beth Mazur co-founded #MEAction. Jennifer is also founder of MEpedia and Thrive Show and director of Canary in a Coal Mine documentary film.

Jennifer was initially misdiagnosed with "conversion disorder" instead of ME; she should have been told to get complete bed rest for her best chance of recovery.
