Sadly, there seems to be nothing out there that actually helps with CFS. I've had it for many years. A few years ago I developed extreme weakness along with it; so weak that my knees buckle and I have no choice but to lie down. *The minute I wake up in the mornings, I take a green tea capsule. No miracles, but it really does help me to get moving. Usually last 3-4 hours. Many days I have to take another in early afternoon. I also take Modafinil for daytime sleepiness. The wonderful plus to it is that it helps my depression! I have tried every kind of anti-depression medication, and my body will not tolerate any of them, so this was a bonus blessing. I wish you the best in dealing with this.
