Chronic Fatigue is Officially Recognized!

Chronic Fatigue is Officially Recognized!

Dr Stengler

For years, patients suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome have gotten the runaround from mainstream doctors, many of whom wont even acknowledge that this debilitating condition is real. Thats about to change. The Institute of Medicine has now given it an official definition: profound fatigue thats worsened by exertion (including mental exertion and stress) and isnt helped by sleep. Patients also typically suffer from either thinking difficulties or problems remaining upright. The IOM has even given the condition a new name: systemic exertion intolerance disease, or SEID. But the name doesnt matter much to me its the treatment thats far more important. And while the IOM is finally giving this disease its long-overdue recognition, it doesn't change the fact that mainstream medicine is still powerless to treat it. They cant treat it, because they dont know the cause. Its time to change that, too, because the cause is often hormonal (especially in women) and can be corrected with a natural therapies. As well, nutritional deficiencies and low grade viral infections are culprits. If youve been getting the runaround from your own doctor, seek the advice of an experienced holistic medical doctor for complete testing and treatment.
