CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) is a disorder of unknown cause that lasts
for prolonged periods and causes extreme and debilitating exhaustion as
well as a wide range of other symptoms such as fever, headache, muscle
ache and joint pain, often resembling flu and other viral infections.
Also known as Chronic Fatigue and Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (CFIDS),
Chronic Epstein-Barr Virus (CEBV), Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME), "Yuppy
Flu" and other names, it is frequently misdiagnosed as hypochondria,
psychosomatic illness, or depression, because routine medical tests do
not detect any problems. |
