This comprehensive ebook provides authoritative information and practical advice from the nation's health experts about chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), also known as myalgic encephalomyelitis, or CFIDS (chronic fatigue and immune dysfunction syndrome). Starting with the basics, and advancing to detailed patient-oriented and physician-quality information, the 21st Century Sourcebook series gives empowered patients, families, caregivers, nurses, and physicians the information they need to understand this complex and mystifying disease. There is extensive coverage of symptoms, diagnosis, medical testing, clinical research, drugs and potential treatments for specific symptoms, and new information about the potential role of viruses including XMRV and MLV. The complete transcripts of every federal government Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Advisory Committee (CFSAC) meeting from 2006 through 2012 are reproduced, with helpful patient profiles, research material, and extensive comments from CFS patients and caregivers with illuminating real-world stories. Reports from CDC-sponsored workshops are included, along with up-to-date details about clinical trials on CFS.

The CDC states: “Symptoms of CFS include fatigue for 6 months or more and experiencing other problems such as muscle pain, memory problems, headaches, pain in multiple joints, sleep problems, sore throat and tender lymph nodes. Since other illnesses can cause similar symptoms, CFS is hard to diagnose.
No one knows what causes CFS. It is most common in women in their 40s and 50s, but anyone can have it. It can last for years. There is no cure for CFS, so the goal of treatment is to improve symptoms. Medicines may treat pain, sleep disorders and other problems.”
