Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Alternate Names : CFS, Fatigue - Chronic
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Prognosis (Expectations)
The long-term outlook for patients with C.F.S. is variable and difficult to predict at the initial onset. Some patients have been reported to completely recover after six months to a year. Others may take longer for a complete recovery.
Some patients report never returning to their pre-illness state. Most studies report that patients treated in an extensive rehabilitation program have a better prognosis of improving significantly than those patients who don't seek treatment.
