10 Symptoms of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Symptom #8: Sensitivity to Stimuli
All around us is information regarding our surroundings. Sounds, sights and smells tell us what is going on, and our brains take the information we need and turn it into something useful. Sometimes, though, people can become very sensitive to these stimuli, and things can get really quite uncomfortable for them.
For people with chronic fatigue syndrome, bright lights, sounds and even smells can become unbearable. They can be unbearably irritating, even painful, and can induce vomiting and severe headaches. Quite often, people with the condition will need to lay down in a quiet, dark room away from other people until the sensitivity subsides.
