Interim service to start in November, Minister tells Tynwald
A pilot scheme for Manx patients with ME, also known as chronic fatigue syndrome, will get underway next month.
Health Minister David Ashford confirmed a locum consultant neuropsychologist has been appointed to work with those with the illness.
He announced plans to implement a pathway for the 350 patients dealing with the condition on the Island earlier this year.
Mr Ashford told Tynwald that service will be ready to begin in the coming weeks:
A small protest campaigning for improved care for ME patients took place ahead of this morning's sitting.
Manx Care spends more than £400,000 with off-Island recruitment firms
'Around 30' breast cancer patients affected by service disruption, so far

IOMMS: Public need to be convinced they are getting 'value for money' before more funding put into health
