"M.E. is an illness. M.E. stands for Myalgic Encephalomyelitis - which is a bit of a mouthful, but basically means muscle ("myalgic") and head ("encephalitic") symptoms.
M.E. is also known as Post-Viral Fatigue Syndrome (PVFS), because it often follows on from a viral infection.
Also known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS).
M.E. is a potentially severe and disabling illness and most commonly affects people between the ages of 20 and 40. The causes are not known."
In this special Missouri Medicine report, doctors examine advances in diagnosis and treatment of this devastating and costly neurodegenerative disease.
