Hi Guys here is yet another cross posting full of information which you might find of benefit.

Treatment options for CFS from the US and New info from the UK

http://www.cdc.gov/cfs/cfstreatmentHCP.htmI am only giving the link for this because to copy and paste the entire thing would be large. The page has so many links that would be lost in transferring it to the group. Please check i out. There is so much info on this page. The page is intended for doctors to learn how to treat patients with CFS/ME. Reality tells me that I have not run across a doctor yet who has read it, but it is interesting to note that it tells the doctors to provide patients with a place to ly down when waiting to be seen. I've never been afforded that option in a waiting room. The page includes a CFS toolkit, a resource guide, and self study courses.Anyone on the group ever had your doctor tell you to play puzzle games to help your disease? I haven't, but here is a quote off of the page..." Stimulating the mind with puzzles, word games, card games and other activities may also be beneficial for some patients."I always have loved games and puzzles and done them anyway, so perhaps that has something to do with the fact that my mind is taking longer to go. I hope everyone can use this info.Note...If you , go to the top left side of the page and click on the little square box that says CDC on it, and it takes you to their home page where you can search through other diseases.
