Is anyone out there treating someone with cfs-chronic fatigue syndrome?

Yes: I've treated countless patients with chronic fatigue syndrome. There are many possible reasons to have chronic fatigue. It's typically a combination a low thyroid and/or adrenal function that isn't showing up on blood tests. It's a 'functional' problem with the hormone system. In addition, we treat with vitamins, immune support, detoxification, dietary changes, and test for food sensitivities.

These factors impair the patient's ability to produce energy and they end up chronically fatigued. There are numerous internal & external stressors that can contribute to this syndrome. Find & rx.
