What Is Chronic Fatigue Syndrome?
4. What Are the Symptoms of CFS?
The most prevalent symptom of chronic fatigue syndrome is fatigue. It is pervasive and experienced by all patients with the condition. It can range from feeling drained to being unable to get out of bed in the morning. Activities that others find easy often seem impossible for people with CFS.
Besides pain, many CFS patients also experience confusion or memory issues, often described as a “brain fog.” Dizziness is common, especially when changing positions, sitting or standing, as is a nonspecific muscle or joint pain.
