The Debilitating Effects Of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

The Debilitating Effects of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is a complex disorder with a wide range of symptoms. It is a long-term illness and one can imagine the toll the body will take when suffering from this condition. This condition is also known as ME (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis). Detecting CFS can be a difficult task because the same symptoms can be caused by any other condition too. This is why, we offer Chronic Fatigue Screening In London. The main symptom of this disease is extreme fatigue, hence, the name. The fatigue might worsen with physical or mental activity but doesn’t necessarily improve with rest. There are other symptoms like: •

Joint or muscle pain

•

Sore throat or sore glands that aren’t swollen

•

Problems in routine things like thinking, concentrating or remembering

•

Feeling sick or dizzy

•

Sleep problems

•

Headaches and flu-like symptoms

•

Irregular or fast heartbeats

What Causes CFS?

The exact cause of CFS is still not clear but there are some contributing factors like: •

Hormonal imbalances

•

A weakened immune system

•

Viruses

•

Stress

When the causes are not clear, it is better to take risk factors into consideration. That might help us in finding people with higher chances of getting affected by this disease: •

If you’re in your 40s or 50s, you are more likely to be affected by this disease than a normal person.

•

Stress management can also be a factor. If you don’t manage it properly, it can lead to CFS.

•

Women are more likely to be affected by it than men.
