Myalgic encephalomyelitis

Myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) — also known as chronic fatigue syndrome — is a condition that is almost impossible to diagnose and doctors only have the patient’s word to rely on concerning the symptoms for ME. ME affects the whole system and has many symptoms, the main one being intense fatigue far beyond normal tiredness.

An ME sufferer typically describes being utterly drained of energy or as though they are being pinned down, with even the smallest movement being an immense effort.

Other symptoms of ME include an inability to sleep well, to the point where tiredness is not relieved by rest or sleep, and a flu-like feeling along with a sore throat and enlarged glands. This condition can be so intense that it can actually make sufferers feel ill, causes aching joints and muscles, and often pain. It can also affect the memory, the ability to think clearly, and to concentrate.
