Test Details:
There is no specific test for chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). The diagnosis of CFS is based on a combination of symptoms and the exclusion of other medical conditions that could be causing the symptoms. To diagnose CFS, a healthcare professional will typically conduct a thorough medical history and physical examination. They may also order blood tests to rule out other conditions with similar symptoms, such as thyroid disorders, anemia, or infections. Additionally, the healthcare professional may use the diagnostic criteria established by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) or the International Consensus Criteria (ICC) for CFS. These criteria include the presence of debilitating fatigue that lasts for at least six months and is not improved by rest, as well as the presence of other characteristic symptoms such as cognitive difficulties, muscle and joint pain, and unrefreshing sleep. It is important to note that CFS is a complex condition, and its diagnosis can be challenging. It may require multiple visits to healthcare professionals and ruling out other potential causes of symptoms.
