CHRONIC FATIGUE SYNDROME (CFS) / FIBROMYALGIA

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) has varying combinations of symptoms including recurrent fatigue, sore throats, low-grade fever, lymph node swelling, headache, muscle and joint pain, intestinal discomfort, emotional distress and / or depression and loss of concentration. The occurrence in the United States is about 11.5%.

The Epstein-Barr virus is thought to be the cause of CFS. EBV unfortunately has the ability to establish a life-long latent infection, which is kept in check by a normal immune system. Any compromise in the immune system can lead to the reactivation of the virus and a recurrent infection.

Fibromyalgia (FM):

Fibromyalgia and multiple chemical sensitivities (MCS), like CFS, are recently recognized disorders with overlapping symptoms. The criteria for diagnosis of fibromyalgia is musculoskeletal pain, while CFS requires fatigue.

Therapeutic Approaches:

Successful treatment requires a comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic approach. It is important to identify the underlying factors which may impact energy levels or the immune system. Treatment modalities frequently include, dietary modification, lifestyle, supplements, botanicals, and counseling.

Testimonial:
I was diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome in 1999. The fatigue was bad enough, but the cognitive impairments that went with it were even worse. I read books, went to various doctors and healers – seeking relief at any level. In July of 2005, I first saw Dr. Eastman who gathered a comprehensive and holistic history. She prescribed a regimen designed for me. Within 10 days, my friends noticed that my mood and energy level had improved. Within 14 days, I had dropped 10 pounds (which have not returned) – without even trying.

My energy today is about 70-80% of what it was before I ever got sick. As time goes on I’m sure that I will regain 100% of my energy.

Thanks so very much, Dr. Eastman!
