The link between Chronic Fatigue and your Immune System
Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is also known as chronic fatigue immune dysfunction syndrome (CFIDS). Chronic fatigue syndrome is an illness that may be triggered by an overactive immune system and an infection.
CFS is commonly accompanied by debilitating fatigue (extreme exhaustion and poor stamina), neurological issues, and flu-like symptoms. Some common symptoms can include headaches, tender lymph nodes, fatigue and weakness, muscle and joint aches, inability to concentrate
