Yes I have CFS, became ill with it in the spring of '95, though I've had problems with depression starting from my teens. Once I stopped working because of symptoms I came across an article regarding somatization disorder (somatisation.) Since then I've been seeing a psychologist and almost a year ago started the effexor. Recently I've had a sleep study because of the side-effects of the effexor worsening my movements during sleep. Two years ago I was treated for a stomach inflammation (don't know what it is called - duodentitis?.) Treating these little things has helped me alot. Check out "generalized anxiety disorder" too. (GAD)
Do you have a hard time sleeping? For me I have a hard time staying awake. Getting restorative sleep obviously can help with daytime fatigue.
BEST WISHES
