That’s not a disease, it’s just a fact of life.” ...

Chronic fatigue syndrome: the top five things you should know about this di
2008-01-22 05:50:00 Chronic fatigue syndrome • 5 things you should know January 21, 2008 1. FINALLY, VALIDATION Not long ago, chronic fatigue syndrome was dismissed as "yuppie flu." Now the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have labeled it a disabling disease, as debilitating as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. The syndrome affects more than 1 million Americans, with only 20 percent of victims diagnosed. People with the disorder experience profound fatigue that is not improved by bed rest and may grow worse with physical or mental activity. Despite an intensive, nearly 20-year search into environmental, genetic and other factors, the cause remains unknown. 2. WHAT IT IS An international panel of experts ruled in 1994 that victims must have at least four of these symptoms: substantial impairment in short-term memory or concentration; sore throat; tender lymph nodes; muscle pain; multijoint pain without swelling or redness; headaches of a new type, pattern or severit...

2007-08-22 22:56:00 Fibromyalgia is frequently diagnosed but poorly understood. Chronic fatigue syndrome by its very name is the source of conflicting opinion and no real consensus on treatment. What is a person to do when they discover they have one or both of these ailments? Resign oneself to an ever-deteriorating lifetime of poor health? Not necessarily. There are many resources, both medical and non-medical, available, and Mary Shomon covers the gamut in her book.

Chronic Fatigue (CFS)
2007-08-03 10:08:00 Chronic fatigue (CFS) is one of those conditions that responds extremely well to the Baseline of Health Program. Why? Quite simply, the Baseline of Health Program works so well with CFS because it is non-specific in its approach. It is not designed to address specific conditions or symptoms, but rather, to raise the health and performance of all major systems in the body at one time – thus allowing the body to perform as it was designed to do. This turns out to be the perfect approach for conditions such as CFS that have wide ranging symptoms and no known specific cause. In fact, a quick look at the suspected causes shows how the Baseline of Health Program actually addresses each and every one of them.
The "Rodney Dangerfield" of illnesses; chronic fatigue syndrome is now wide
2007-07-19 00:47:00 It was like the "Rodney Dangerfield" of illnesses. It got no respect at all. But finally chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is recognized by the both the medical community and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as a serious illness. CFS is also widely associated with depression.“People with C.F.S. are as sick and as functionally impaired as someone with AIDS, with breast cancer, with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,” said Dr. William Reeves, the lead expert on the illness at the C.D.C., who helped expose the centers’ misuse of chronic fatigue financing.The New York Times reported yesterday that studies have shown that people with the syndrome experience abnormalities in the central and autonomic nervous systems, the immune system, cognitive functions, the stress response pathways and other major biological functions. Researchers believe the illness will ultimately prove to have multiple causes, including genetic predisposition,...

Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia, and Pilates
2007-03-31 02:05:00 Thanks to my handy Google Alert I found the About.com CFS/Fibromyalgia page which has little blurb on Pilates..."The Pilates method is not just a set of exercises but a complete approach to developing body awareness. It is a conditioning program that focuses on subtle movements to improve muscle control, flexibility, coordination, balance, strength and tone. Its application will strengthen and stretch the body’s core muscles. By taking weak abdominal muscles and strengthening them, the body becomes aligned. Since these core muscles support the spine and protect the body’s organs, as they become stronger the body as a whole becomes stronger. This result is reached over time as part of a natural evolution rather than other exercise programs that force the results.[OK, the body does not simply become aligned simply by taking weak abdominal muscles and strengthening them! It becomes aligned through balanced strength and tone in all muscles around all joints. And the core muscles a...

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Alters Sleep
1970-01-01 00:59:00 We all know what it feels like when a good rest is not obtained for several consecutive days. Now imagine what it is like to feel this way everyday, a condition called chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). In a new study, researchers find that brain wave activity is blunted in CFS, potentially clearing the distinction between CFS and depression.
