  • Title: Chronic fatigue syndrome. A fresh look at an old problem.
    Author: McSherry J.
    Journal: Can Fam Physician; 1993 Feb; 39():336-40. PubMed ID: 8495124.
    Abstract:
    Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), an organic disease of unexplained origin, affects about three people in 100,000. Symptoms last approximately 2 1/2 years, and most CFS patients return to normal health. Diagnosis of CFS is by exclusion. No single remedy has yet proven consistently beneficial. Family physicians can help by providing medical validation of disability to persons who might otherwise be seen as malingerers.
