Chronic Fatigue
If you are one of over a million Americans that suffer with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), you know even the simplest daily tasks can be a struggle. CFS is not just being tired; CFS is sheer exhaustion that not only causes physical pain, but mental and emotional exhaustion as well. Having CFS limits one’s ability to complete typical daily tasks, and sufferers find themselves needing to limit basic activities in order to avoid physical crashes.
Chronic Fatigue Symptoms
Those suffering with CFS will struggle with at least four of these fatigue symptoms on a daily basis:
- Feeling unwell for more than 24 hours after physical activity
- Muscle pain
- Memory problems
- Headaches
- Pain in multiple joints
- Sleep problems
- Sore throat
- Tender lymph nodes
CFS is difficult to diagnose due to the complexity of the indicators, and is currently incurable. Even though it’s most common in women in their 40s and 50s, anyone can be a victim of this disease. In order to be diagnosed with CFS, one must have the above issues for a minimum of six months. In severe instances, an individual may have CFS for several years.
How to Treat CFS
CFS is not cured with merely rest and relaxation. In many cases, the more sleep one gets, the more the symptoms are aggravated. Finding the correct balance of sleep and activity is a delicate task, and usually requires a lifestyle plan created by a doctor or physical therapist.
Just like any disease, those with CFS are most affected when the body is the least healthy. That’s why stress and other physical ailments, like colds and flus, can make CFS nearly unbearable. When the body is equipped to start healing itself, CFS is more manageable, and can even go away.
The power of the mind is real, and it can either be the main thing that prevents healing, or the driving force behind improving one’s life. Believing you’re on the path to healing is the first step to getting there; hence, the necessity for meditation, prayer, positive thinking, and self-admiration. CFS sufferers can also improve their quality of life by living a clean lifestyle, doing light workouts and stretches, and keeping stress to a minimum.
