DID YOU KNOW THAT FATIGUE CAN BECOME A DISEASE?
Well yes, known as: Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) -or also called myalgic encephalomyelitis.
There is really little documentation in this regard and for this reason it is difficult for a doctor to easily reach this diagnosis, while any of us undoubtedly associate it with laziness or laziness. Even so it is true that it is a disease that weakens, affects and deteriorates the quality of life, making difficult or impossible certain daily tasks such as getting out of bed, bathing or even eating.
It is a complex disorder distinguished by an exaggerated fatigue that has no apparent explanation. Even if the person after a physical or mental effort rests, the fatigue will not cease.
This syndrome can only be detected after six months of presenting signs of the disease.
CONSEQUENCES
As everything can bring different effects the condition of this syndrome can be confused with Lyme disease, thyroid problems or testosterone deficiency, among others, generating any of these diagnoses some dangerous and wrong treatment. In addition to this radical change in human life can lead to complications such as depression, social isolation, lifestyle restrictions and absence from work.
The one who suffers from this disease, does not recover 100% of its functioning, a very alarming state because there is no type of test or exam that corroborates this diagnosis or a specific treatment that can help this condition.
