The term <A href="http://www.medicineau.net.au/clinical/medicine/../../clinical/medicine/CFS.html">Chronic Fatigue Syndrome</A> (CFS) refers to a symptom
complex of marked and prolonged fatigue for which no identifiable
cause can be found. Other symptoms frequently present include
generalised muscle weakness and pain, low-grade fever, sore throat,
painful lymph nodes in the neck and armpits, exacerbation of fatigue
after moderate or strenuous exercise for periods of 24 hours or more,
transient pains in a number of joints, and various disturbances of
neuropsychological function including confusion, irritability, poor
concentration and visual changes. Despite the range of other symptoms
being extensive, none are essential for the diagnosis to be made in
the presence of profound fatigue of 6 months or more duration.
Chronic fatigue syndrome is frequently seen in association with
psychiatric illnesses such as depression and anxiety but has not been
shown to be causally related to any particular psychiatric disease.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/EA0BFCFF-078D-45DB-B593-C4CC31CF9840/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
