What kind of treatment is available? Proper? Improper?
Reputable physicians treat symptoms ONLY, refer patients to credible support groups and provide educational materials to learn to cope with CFS. One should determine that the physician is interested in the patients’ well-being and not his/her bank account. Improper treatments can include IV hydrogen peroxide, IV vitamin C, coffee enemas, Chinese herbs, and blood warming treatments. For those “CFS experts” promising a cure, one finds the treatment is extremely expensive, requires payment in advance and comes with no guarantee. We know of no refund offers for those who don’t get well. Proper nutrition (recommended by the National Dairy Association) and rest can be beneficial.
