What doctors can help me with my chronic fatigue syndrome?

Depends: There are many doctors who specialize in chronic fatigue syndrome - some are generalists, some are immunologists, and some are infectious disease specialists. Since there is no standardization to treatment, it's best to look around for a reputable physician with experience in the area. Some physicians still do not believe that this condition is real.

Depends: There are number of options for chronic fatigue syndrome but the important thing is to rule out organic causes for your symptoms. There are some physicians who have more experience on cfs but treatment modalities vary quite a bit from allopathic to alternative medicine. It's up to you and your physician to find the best treatment plan for yourself to manage the symptoms and recover from cfs.
