Cronis Fatique Syndrome

What are the symptoms of Cronis Fatique Syndrome???

[HFHS MD-JM]

Rochelle,

         Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disorder characterized by fatigue lasting months to years, typically following a viral illness.  CFS also has been associated with muscle aches, memory problems and trouble concentrating.  This syndrome remains very controversial in the medical community as a discrete entity.  CFS may be a depressive syndrome with somatization(ie manifesting psychological symptoms via bodily complaints).  I hope this was helpful.

Sincerely,

HFHS MD-JM
