Fibromyalgia News from NewsTrove
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
From: NewsTrove.com
"Having chronic fatigue syndrome, or CFS, means more than just getting tired. With the busy lives American women lead, we all get tired from time to time. But, the fatigue
with CFS is extreme and overwhelming, and doesn't get better with bed rest. And, it is often made worse with physical or mental activity.
This illness seems to happen all of a sudden - one day you may notice that you are very tired and can't manage your normal activities. Your energy level is lower and you often get tired for no reason. You may also feel weak and have muscle pain, difficulty focusing, or insomnia (not being able to sleep)."

Dr Hochman,
If this can help others, please print it!
Last summer, after going to a wonderful pain doctor that was out of state, I decided to try a local pain doctor. My family doctor suggested the switch and said that he knew of an excellent pain management doctor in my area and I was also trying to save the cost of the quarterly trips that I was making to my pain doctor.
The first physician I saw at the office was a doctor who's specialty was giving injections in the joints in the back."

another question
From: www.livejournal.com
"I remember reading about a drug that some people take for chronic fatigue that is supposed to boost energy during the day and help you pay attention/be alert. I can't remember if it was something I should avoid because it's speedy, but it seems like people were giving it good ratings.
Does this ring a bell with anyone?"
