Front Page World UK UK Politics ... Help Monday, June 22, 1998 Published at 16:25 GMT 17:25 UK Health Immune system blamed for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Melatonin could be the secret behind chronic fatigue syndrome Scientists are confident they have found a physical cause for the controversial condition Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. They believe it may be caused by the body's reaction to stress which effectively leads to the immune system becoming overloaded. Researchers found that people with CFS produced unusually high levels of the hormone melatonin, which stimulates the immune system and plays an important role in promoting sleep. Melatonin is vital for maintaining the body's correct diurnal rhythms - helping a person sleep at night and stay awake during the day. For this reason it is used to treat insomnia and jet-lag. The researchers at Guy's and St Thomas's Hospitals, London, are convinced that the hormone is the key to CFS. They believe their findings may lead to the much-misunderstood condition being re-classified as an immune system disorder. Some doctors still believe CFS to be "all in the mind", although most now agree that to some degree it has a physical cause.

Chronic fatigue syndrome VOL 111 / NO 4 / APRIL 2002 / POSTGRADUATE MEDICINE "I'm exhausted." We all are apt to say those words once in a while. After all, no one is immune to being tired. But for some people, fatigue stops them in their tracks. It arrives suddenly or comes and goes for no apparent reason, or it may never relent. If you're tired beyond the normal waves of energy that everyday life brings and are not suffering from a particular illness, chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) may be playing a role. What is CFS? For many people, CFS begins after a cold or a bout with the flu, bronchitis, or other infection. But unlike these illnesses, which usually go away in a few days or weeks, CFS symptoms wax and wane in frequent but unpredictable cycles. According to the International Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Study Group, a person may have CFS if he or she has unexplained, persistent fatigue along with four or more of the following symptoms for more than 6 months: Substantial impairment in short-term memory or concentration Sore throat Tender lymph nodes Muscle pain Pain in multiple joints without swelling or redness Headaches of a new type, pattern, or severity

The opinions contained in this publication are those of the contractor and do not necessarily reflect those of the U.S. Department of Labor. Job Accommodation Network ACCOMMODATING PEOPLE WITH CHRONIC FATIGUE SYNDROME By Linda Carter Batiste, J.D. , and Beth Loy, Ph.D. Preface Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) affects an estimated 75 to 265 people per 100,000 people according to a recent study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). These statistics, coupled with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), show why knowing about workplace accommodations for people with CFS is important. When considering accommodations for people with CFS, the accommodation process must be conducted on a case-by-case basis. Symptoms caused by CFS vary so when determining effective accommodations, the person's individual abilities and limitations should be considered and problematic job tasks must be identified. Therefore, the person with CFS should be involved in the accommodation process. Not all people with CFS will need accommodations to perform their jobs and many others may need only a few accommodations. For those who need accommodation, the following pages provide basic information about common limitations, symptoms, useful questions to consider, and accommodation possibilities. The following is only a sample of possibilities to consider; numerous other solutions and considerations may exist.

100. PPNF Articles: Chronic Fatigue Syndrome And The Yeast Connection chronic fatigue syndrome and the Yeast Connection By William G. Crook, MD. Inthe spring of 1988, the name was changed to the chronic fatigue syndrome. http://www.price-pottenger.org/Articles/ChrFatigue.html

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and the Yeast Connection By William G. Crook, M.D. D uring the past seven or eight years, professionals and the public have been reading and hearing about a disorder that in the words of Dr. David Bell of New York is a "disease with a thousand names." Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). Although this disorder has been described for decades, even centuries, it came to the attention of the public following a 1984 outbreak which affected several hundred people in Incline Village, Nevada, a resort town on the shores of Lake Tahoe. It initially was called the Chronic Epstein-Barr Virus Syndrome (CEBVS). However, laboratory studies showed that a lot of people with this disorder did not have elevated levels of antibodies to the Epstein-Barr virus. In the spring of 1988, the name was changed to the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. And that's the name most people have been using. However, Dr. Paul Cheney and associates in North Carolina have suggested another name, Chronic Fatigue And Immune Deficiency Syndrome (CFIDS). Still other people didn't like that name either because they felt that the word "fatigue" in the name trivialized the disorder. And they suggested still another name, Chronic Immune Deficiency Syndrome (CIDS).
