Hi Michelle,

Years ago I was diagnosed with Epstein Bar which doctors are now calling Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. It is a very debilitating disease and there is little information about it. There is no medication to help people who suffer from it either. Do you know where I can find a specialist who deals with CFS? THANK YOU for reaching out and helping others with this website!!!!

CFS and resources

It's wonderful you're seeking out resources for CFS. What part of the country do you live in? That will help us locate resources for you. In the meantime, you may want to visit the Centers for Disease Control's Web site.

EB to CFS to Lupus

Umpteen years ago, I was diagnosed with Epstein Barr, then later properly diagnosed with lupus. It IS very hard to diagnose since so many of the symptoms could indicate other conditions.

I hope you find a good physician.
