Hi,
Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), also known as
myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), is a complex condition that is characterized by severe fatigue that is not improved by rest and is accompanied by a variety of other symptoms. It is important to work with a healthcare professional who specializes in CFS/ME to properly diagnose and manage your condition.
Treatment for chronic fatigue syndrome often involves a combination of approaches tailored to individual needs, which may include lifestyle changes,
cognitive-behavioral therapy, graded
exercise therapy, and medications for symptom management. However, the use of amphetamines or similar substances for the treatment of CFS is not a recognized or recommended approach.
I strongly urge you to consult with a healthcare professional who specializes in chronic fatigue syndrome. They will be able to evaluate your symptoms, provide an accurate diagnosis, and develop a comprehensive treatment plan to address your specific needs and improve your quality of life.
If you require a personalized response, kindly use the

Dr. Priyanka, General & Family Physician
