Chronic fatigue syndrome is also referred to as what?

I experience all these symptoms and more. I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia nearly 2 years ago aged 51 after suffering with the symptoms for most of my life. I find what I choose eat to be most beneficial as the medication has too many side effects.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for all these feedbacks!!! I am so glad that it is not only in my head ... I am not crazy. 😪

As a medical doc and spouse of someone suffering with chronic fatigue, I recommended her the AIP diet and she feels much more energized nowadays....just my 2 cents

Arabella, I would swear you've just written about me. exactly. because I'm bipolar they say it must be in my head. I wldnt wish these symptoms on anyone, but I must admit I feel a bit better to know I'm not the only one. thanks Arabella & everyone else for sharing

Cha Cha, food choices haven't helped me. Not much has and I have had "it" at least 30 years. Tried a slew of meds and agree to some extent to you but I believe the psyxh drugs that affect serotonin levels, dopamine levels have some value. I believe that there is some type of neurological breakdown in the nervous system, especially affecting pain perception.

I am not able to sleep for years now ... always tired ... overeating ... high blood pressure ... chronic diarrhea ... leaky gut. But they always that I am fine.

Arabella, no your not...

Cha Cha, I suffer from it too, but I have found that eating foods that contain magnizium really helps to reduce the pain.

KingSwift36, AiP diet? Will look into it for sure!

Cha Cha, Same!!! But they failed to label me with fibromyalgia ... or lupus.

CFS/ME is a complex illness with many symptoms.
