What is Chronic Fatigue Syndrome?

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, also known as Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME/CFS), is a complex, long-term disorder characterized by extreme fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest. It severely affects daily activities and often worsens after mental or physical exertion. While the exact cause is unknown, it is considered a serious and disabling condition requiring medical attention. Individuals with CFS may experience sleep abnormalities, chronic pain, and neurological impairments that last for months or even years, making routine tasks incredibly challenging and limiting independence.

Causes of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

The exact cause of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is unclear. However, experts believe it can be triggered by multiple factors. Viral infections such as Epstein-Barr, immune system dysfunction, hormonal imbalances, and severe stress are suspected contributors. Some cases develop after respiratory infections or traumatic life events. A genetic predisposition might also make some people more likely to develop the condition. Often, the onset of symptoms occurs following an illness, injury, or significant mental stress, which can make it difficult to pinpoint the origin.

Diagnosis of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

There is no specific test for diagnosing Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Diagnosis is made by ruling out other conditions with similar symptoms. Doctors usually perform a thorough physical exam, evaluate the patient’s medical history, and order lab tests to exclude conditions like anemia, thyroid disorders, or autoimmune diseases. A CFS diagnosis is generally considered when extreme fatigue lasts for more than six months and doesn’t improve with rest, along with cognitive or orthostatic symptoms. It is a diagnosis of exclusion and requires a methodical clinical approach.

Symptoms of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Symptoms of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome vary among individuals but primarily include severe fatigue lasting longer than six months. This fatigue is not improved by rest and worsens with physical or mental activity. Other symptoms include poor memory, concentration difficulties, muscle and joint pain, unrefreshing sleep, headaches, and sore throat. People may also experience dizziness upon standing (orthostatic intolerance), chills, and sensitivity to light or sound. These symptoms may fluctuate over time, becoming more severe after exertion, a phenomenon known as post-exertional malaise (PEM).

Treatment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Currently, there is no cure for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, but several treatments aim to relieve symptoms and improve quality of life. Treatment plans are personalized and may include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), graded exercise therapy (GET), pain relievers, and sleep aids. Lifestyle changes, stress management, and nutritional support play vital roles. Pacing activities to avoid overexertion is essential. Many patients benefit from a multidisciplinary approach involving physicians, psychologists, and physiotherapists to manage symptoms effectively and maintain independence in daily life.

When to See the Doctor?

Consult a doctor if fatigue lasts over six months with memory issues, poor sleep, or post-activity exhaustion.
