Does anyone know anything about chronic Fatigue syndrome?
I ask because during recent months I have been having multiple issues that I think may add up to this or something similar, and I don't know that they are worth going to the doctor about. I'm constantly tired, I've had frequent fevers, wake up sweating buckets, have numbness in my hands and toes, having severe stomach problems, can't sleep enough to function, and am barely able to make it through most days. I also have been having severe pains in my knees, back, and heels, which occurred prior to my car accident last thursday. My symptoms read like a book from the symptoms that I have read online concerning this, however I don't want to be a self-diagnosing person...but I am not sure how to go to my doctor and tell him that all of these things are occurring and have been occurring for about 4 months now and I have neglected to go see him. So does anyone have personal experience regarding this issue?
