Chronic Fatigue & Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (CFIDS)
CFIDS is also known as chronic fatigue and immune dysfunction syndrome (CFS), myalgic encephalomyelitis (M.E.) and by many other names. It is unknown what causes it. No and HIV would not be the same test used. Unfortunately, there is no one diagnostic test that can be recommended at this time, although research is underway. Most often, blood tests are ran and then begins the process of elimination.

just a thought teak, with the increasing number of CFIDS cases, i was just thinking that CDC came out with this desease to cover up the flaws of the HIV test, what is CDIFS? back in '92 there are cases of AIDS and yet the HIV test cannot detect hiv anti bodies in the blood?

No, it not the same as AIDS.

Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) represents a group of rare, sometimes fatal, congenital disorders characterized by little or no immune response. The defining feature of SCID, commonly known as "bubble boy" disease, is a defect in the specialized white blood cells (B- and T-lymphocytes) that defend us from infection by viruses, bacteria and fungi.

Chronic fatigue syndrome and HIV/AIDS are not in any way related.
