For decades, "Yuppie Flu" and "Shirker
Syndrome"
were words used to describe Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Doctors, employers, and even friends and family did not realize the severity of the symptoms or
thought the sufferers were imagining their symptoms. Finally, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have released studies linking
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) to genetic mutations and abnormalities in gene expression. The CDC has even sponsored a 6 million dollar campaign to
alert the public regarding the illness. CFS is a multifaceted syndrome (defined as not a definite known cause) and not all people have the same
triggers. Thus, it is difficult to treat and diagnose.
