Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

After endless tests I think the doctors have finally settled on a diagnosis of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome for me. The good news is that hopefully in a year or two I will get better - the bad news is that there isn't really much they can do for me... so off to acupuncture I go to try to get some relief from my symptoms... it is apparently to best option left since I don't seem to respond to medications (and the only ones left to try sound pretty scary). There is only so much time a day for sleeping so I need to figure out something that will help!

Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry. I had a friend in high school who was diagnosed with this. I know it can be frustrating with such limited option. You know what I recommend: yoga! Seriously though, look into it. :)
