Chronic fatigue syndrome is a state of constant exhaustion and reduced mental and physical performance that does not go away after rest and lasts more than six months.
Chronic fatigue syndrome is a state of constant exhaustion and reduced mental and physical performance that does not go away after rest and lasts more than six months.
The syndrome is named for a reason: it is considered one of the most common conditions of our time. Residents of large cities, well-off members of the middle class, middle managers, and women aged 25 to 45 who lead an active social and working life are in the risk group. People diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome often have accompanying neurological conditions of varying severity, from migraine and panic attacks to neuroses and depressive disorders.
The feeling of fatigue itself, which is total, unexplained, and does not go away, is the main diagnostic criterion for this condition. Why does it occur?
Chronic fatigue syndrome, or CFS for short, is a relatively new diagnosis that is becoming something like an epidemic in the modern world. The name of the syndrome was formulated in 1988 because similar symptoms were being found frequently in adults; in the United States, a large number of patients were diagnosed with what is now called chronic fatigue syndrome.
Specialists around the world, including CSM Clinic doctors, associate the development of chronic fatigue with unfavorable life circumstances that modern people face regardless of age, sex, or social status. These include extremely high emotional and mental stress, an unfavorable environment, and an unbalanced diet, as well as information overload and workaholism.
This is the main but not the only approach to determining the causes of this insidious modern ailment. It can also develop for reasons entirely unrelated to the psycho-emotional sphere. Chronic diseases, hidden inflammatory processes, hormonal changes, infections, and even protozoa can cause constant fatigue that does not go away even after long rest and good-quality sleep.
When patients ask what chronic fatigue syndrome is, they often receive a short and far from complete answer: constant exhaustion and a persistent feeling of fatigue. This is because, besides this undoubtedly key sign, a person who needs CFS treatment in Ukraine and Kyiv may have the following clinical manifestations:
Less common manifestations:
You can tell that it is time to seek treatment for chronic fatigue syndrome when these symptoms do not go away after long rest and a particular patient has at least 6 of the listed manifestations. CSM Clinic specialists can help you cope with this problem.
First, see doctors for diagnosis if you notice several of the manifestations listed above and they are equally pronounced regardless of the workload during the day.
Second, do not delay seeing a doctor and do not try to treat fatigue on your own: without adequate treatment, this condition can develop into neurosis or depression.
