Hope and Help for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: The Official Guide of the Cfs/Cfids Network

Describes the symptoms of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, explains why it is so hard to diagnose, and suggests treatments, therapies, diets, and exercise programs

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) was defined as a clinical entity in 1988. The disease is characterized by a disabling fatigue and a host of other flu-like symptoms in normally healthy people. While research continues into the cause of CFS, a strong support group of 14,000 American members alone does an admirable job of providing help to CFS victims. This book, for example, is a comprehensive reference work on CFS, covering the range from economics (applying for Supplemental Security Income) to pharmacology to library services. Information is current and well balanced; this book will be of practical value to patients and their families and friends.
