  • Title: Chronic fatigue syndrome.
    Author: Klonoff DC.
    Journal: Clin Infect Dis; 1992 Nov; 15(5):812-23. PubMed ID: 1445980.
    Abstract:
    Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is defined by symptoms and diagnosed without any objective diagnostic tests. Risk factors for developing CFS may include infection, psychiatric disorders, and allergies. Modest dysfunction of multiple organ systems, including the immune, central nervous, endocrine, and muscular systems, have been identified in cases of CFS. Symptoms of various organic, psychiatric, and poorly understood disorders overlap those of CFS. There is no known cure for CFS; however, exercise, counseling, and medications may provide symptomatic relief.
