A friend is going through the ME/CFS "journey" in Canada right now. Apparently, to get disability for CFS, one needs to first apply for disability, which will be rejected. Then, one needs to be able to afford a lawyer to sue the government, which ultimately gets CFS recognized on a case-by-case basis to be debilitating. There are apparently a couple of clinics who specialize in CFS, but they're nearly impossible to access.
