Chronic Fatigue treatment FAQs
What are treatment options for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS)?
Lifestyle therapies, medications for symptom management, and cognitive-behavioural therapy are common treatment methods. Treatment often involves a multidisciplinary team of allied health professionals, such as psychologists, to help manage your mental health and exercise physiologists, to manage physical symptoms and work on a graded exercise plan and activity pacing.
Can my energy levels improve with exercise?
Yes, with a carefully paced and individualised exercise program, you can gradually increase your activity levels and manage fatigue. However, it’s crucial to approach exercise cautiously and in consultation with healthcare professionals, as excessive or inappropriate activity can exacerbate symptoms.
How can I manage my CFS on a daily basis?
Perhaps one of the most effective strategies is learning how to space energy draining activities throughout your day and week. Good sleep hygiene, diet, stress management, and engaging in regular, gentle physical activity can also form important parts of any management plan. Regular check-ins with a healthcare provider are also necessary.
Is CFS the same as being tired all the time?
No, CFS is not simply feeling tired. It involves profound fatigue that is not relieved by rest, often accompanied by a range of other symptoms affecting physical and cognitive function.
What causes CFS?
The exact cause of CFS is not well understood. It may result from a combination of factors, including viral infections, immune system dysfunction, and psychological stressors. Research is ongoing to better understand its origins.
Is there a cure for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome?
Currently, there is no specific cure for CFS. Treatment focuses on managing symptoms and improving quality of life.
