This book explores the history, effects, diagnosis and treatment of
chronic fatigue as well its significant links to other illnesses.
Fatigue is a difficult symptom to accurately assess and quantify
due to its subjective nature. Marie Thomas discusses the
uncertainties and difficulties in its diagnosis as well as the
broader effects of fatigue on quality of life. Fatigue is an
increasingly reported problem in primary care, and one that is
associated with other chronic conditions as a secondary symptom.
Using several case studies, this book describes how in many cases,
a patient's primary condition can be managed; however General
Practitioners are left unable to address the fatigue experienced,
especially in older adults. Chapters consider the interventions
that exist to manage fatigue - especially in the case of Chronic
Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) - before highlighting the lack of strategies
in primary care for dealing with the problem. In the final chapter
Thomas discusses potential interventions and gives recommendations
for future research regarding fatigue. This book will be of
interest to academics and practitioners in healthcare and
psychology, as well as to patient groups and those who care for
individuals with fatigue.
