it there any effective cure for the CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome) yet?

Answer 1

I wish I could give you a effective treatment of CFS.

But given that each sufferers symptoms vary, along with the severity, so does the treatment vary for each individual, usually trial and error, (which can be a bit expensive).

I know some people who have had some improvement of using vitamin B injections, or other some such Nutritional & Herbal treatments. Sleeping medication to assist with sleep disturbance, anti-depressants may help with depression, but need to be guided by a doctor who believes in CFS. Not some twit who thinks depression is CFS.

I found a healthy diet helps a little, but due to allergies my diet is fairly restricted. Rest when I can, and try to reduce stress levels (far easier said than done).

Our support groups motto "What treatment works for one unfortunately does not for another"

I have included a few links for you to check out, the top link (myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome, a clinical case definition and guidelines for medical practitioners) is worth the read, and has some very good information. If you have access to a printer, print it out if you can so you can read it in your time, not online as it is fairly long document.

Good luck!

Answer 2

nope. there aren't even really any good treatments for it that really address what is causing it because we don't know what causes it- but there are treatments and getting an effective diagnosis and a doctor who specilises in CFS is important. Best wishes to you or whoever has CFS or symptoms of CFS.

I'm not sure. You need to check with your doctor to see how to best treat your symptoms.
