AVERY/PENGUIN GROUP USA – October 4, 2007 – More than 2.5 million Americans suffer every day with the debilitating effects of chronic fatigue and immune dysfunction syndrome (CFS/CFIDS) and about three to six percent of the population (12-24 million Americans) battle fibromyalgia. Their baffling symptoms include severe, almost unrelenting fatigue, achiness, insomnia, memory and digestive troubles, weight gain, loss of libido and immune deficiencies. Sadly, these illnesses are frequently misdiagnosed or worse, dismissed by physicians, employers and loved ones.

Specific guidelines for diagnosis and treatment are clearly and concisely presented along with supporting scientific evidence. Treatments include prescription and over-the-counter medications, nutritional supplements, alternative therapies, and dietary and lifestyle modifications.
