Today we are discussing a complicated illness, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). Similar to Fibromyalgia, CFS is a diagnosis that has a lot of confusion surrounding it. Physicians and patients are often frustrated by the lack of improvements with specific treatments. In today’s broadcast we will discuss why doctors and patients have to approach this problem with a different paradigm, and how in doing so this multifaceted problem can be addressed.
