What is CFIDS anyhow? It was 1st found in the 1920's in a hospital in LA,Cal. for Polio patients and many health workers came down with this strange but all similar symptoms
It was called Post Polio at that time.Since than it's name changed hundreds of times,neurasthenia of which Florence Nightingale was Bedridden most of her adult life and was taken serious
back than.To today it's known as CFS "Chronic Fatigue Syndrome" Ohh the CDC thought it sounded benign enough (Great Name).Or maybe known
, Fibromyalgia (FMS)---aka Chronic Epstein Barr Virus (CEBV),
Myofascial Pain Syndrome (MPS), and Chronic
Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (CFIDS)or has been called the Disease of a Thousand Names by Dr.Bell.
The rest of the World know it as Myalgic Encephalomyelitis
No known cause or cure and not many treatments for this debilitating Illness and I've found the longer you have it.It overlap's with other Illnesses
