Roughly one million adults in America are adversely affected by Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (commonly known as CFS) is largely described by its name, but it takes a bit more than this to diagnose CFS. If you have found that you are unusually tired for reasons not related to exertion or lack of sleep, use this handy guide to discern whether you might be suffering from CFS. One of the first signs of CFS is that you might be feeling tired all the time, or fatigued all the time, with no reason that you can think of. This fatigue would be extreme enough to reduce your regular activity levels. If this is the case, you should begin to look for the additional signs of CFS. The following are among the additional signs of CFS: decreased levels of memory or concentration; muscle pain for no discernable reason; headaches that have increased in regularity or severity from what you are used to; a persistent and recurring soar throat; joint pain; and sleep that hardly refreshes you at all. If you find that a combination of these symptoms is persisting for around six months or longer, you should plan to see a physician so they can test you for CFS. A diagnosis from a doctor is likely to come from process of elimination, as CFS is defined and diagnosed a lot of different ways. They are mostly likely to decide that you have CFS if they are unable to establish any other cause for your symptoms. There are a lot of "cures" for CFS, but there is no cure that has worked consistently for all those afflicted by CFS. Two things that come into play here are the instigating factors and the severity of the CFS. For instance, antidepressants can help to solve CFS for those who are suffering due to depression. Furthermore, dietary adjustments and regular exercise can help some people combat their bouts with CFS. If you find that you have CFS, search for a doctor who has dealt with CFS patients before. Such a doctor will be better-equipped to help you with the nuances of this terrible affliction. Your best bet, if you have been excessively tired lately and cannot explain why, is to simply cross your fingers and hope that this problem disappears. If, however, it does not simply go away, you might have CFS, and you will certainly want to begin fighting it as quickly as you can.
