Can anyone help me with a patient of mine who suffers from ME or chronic fatigue syndrome, anyone with any experience in treating these patients and any new ideas to ease the terrible tiredness!?
More rehabilitation ideas rather than pharmaceutical advances!

Anyone also know any good links for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome info or the like?!?!

I would appreciate any information at all and if you could send me info to [email protected] I would be very grateful!

does the patient have Fibromyalgia as well ? They would have foical muscle tender points in 18 symetrical muscle groups as well as a myriad of symptoms such as sleep deprivation, a feeling a swelling "beyond the skin" etc. If they do have this you are free to send me an email and I can help you with a management strategy. Cheers

Has the Pt any history of trauma?Is the pelvis & thoracic spine Assymmetrical & hypomobile.? The fatigue could be due to adverse neuromechanical tension secondary to the above. Craniosacral therapy Plus neural mobilisation could be indicated if the above criteria meet the patient's profile.

Hypoxic (oxygen therapy) is currently proving to be very successful in treating this condition. One expert in altitude training with such equipment is Dr Tamara Voronina, a russian endocrinologist who help work on the cosmonauts in the 70's in Moscow before moving to London.
