What’s CFS?
Chronic fatigue syndrome.
It's another one like long covid where so much of the medical community thinks it's all in people's heads and not real, but unlike long covid it's less prevalent and thus studied less. We still don't know what it is.
There's even some hopes that figuring out long covid might lead to new ways to look into what cfs really is.
