More About Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a long-term illness with a wide range of symptoms. The most common symptom is extreme tiredness. CFS is also known as ME, which stands for myalgic encephalomyelitis. Many people refer to the condition as CFS/ME.

CFS/ME can affect anyone, including children. It's more common in women, and tends to develop between your mid-20s and mid-40s.

Symptoms for people with CFS/ME:

Extremely tired and generally unwell.

Sleep problems

Muscle or joint pain

Headaches

Sore throat or sore glands that are not swollen

Problems thinking, remembering or concentrating

Flu-like symptoms

Feeling dizzy or sick

Fast or irregular heartbeats (heart palpitations)

Most people find over exercising makes their symptoms worse.

The severity of symptoms can vary from day to day, or even within a day.

The symptoms of CFS/ME are similar to the symptoms of some other illnesses. It is important to see a GP to get a correct diagnosis.

Diagnosing chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS/ME)

There is not a specific test for CFS/ME, so it's diagnosed based on your symptoms and by ruling out other conditions that could be causing your symptoms. Your GP will ask about your symptoms and medical history. You may also have blood and urine tests.

As the symptoms of CFS/ME are similar to those of many common illnesses that usually get better on their own, a diagnosis of CFS/ME may be considered if you do not get better as quickly as expected.

Treating Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS/ME)

Treatment for CFS/ME aims to relieve the symptoms. Your treatment will depend on how CFS/ME is affecting you.

Treatments include:

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)

A structured exercise programme called graded exercise therapy (GET)

Medicine to control pain, nausea and sleeping problems

Most people with CFS get better over time, although some people do not make a full recovery.

It's also likely there will be periods when your symptoms get better or worse.

Children and young people with CFS/ME are more likely to recover fully.

Various factors increase your chances of getting Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, including your family medical history, age, a previous diagnosis of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. If an insurer feels that one or any of these factors apply to your circumstances, they may offer a higher premium or refuse cover.
