studying her A-Levels, Grace Burke-Whyte, was struck down by crippling fatigue and the rather bizarre symptom of suddenly losing her voice.Doctors were left perplexed by her sudden illness which also caused Grace to lose the ability to use her hands properly.She was left bed bound for months as scientists tried to get to the bottom of why Grace was only able to whisper and why the other symptoms had been unearthed.

The 22-year-old told the Liverpool Echo: "When I first fell ill, I was 16, I couldn't really move and do anything. "I was just stuck in bed.

And then I could not use my hands, I couldn't grip anything or touch anything, they were really sore."It was quite hard, I was a very active person and I would walk to sixth form every day.
