Chronic Tiredness: An Inside Look at the Symptoms
Excessive tiredness is a debilitating illness and it presents itself through a variety of symptoms which are usually puzzling to diagnose and hard to treat. This chronic illness has continued to baffle and mystify many doctors and experts as to its exact cause. This is actually the main reason why even up to this day, scientists are a having a hard time finding the right remedy and a long term solution to this troubling dilemma. However, there are many clinics which proposed a number of possible causes of extreme tiredness; these include anemia or iron deficiency, allergies, virus infection and immune system dysfunction among others. The symptoms and signs of chronic tiredness are as diverse as that of the possible causes of this predicament.
Some of the known symptoms are headaches, sore throat, muscle pains, unrelenting pain all throughout the body, extreme fatigue, fragmented sleep, earaches, TMJ problems, body stiffness when waking up, chills and night sweats, fainting or dizziness, allergies, unrelenting exhaustion, panic attacks and depression.
These are some of the most usual symptoms which were described by people who suffer from chronic tiredness. The intensity and longevity of these said symptoms; however, vary from one person to another. There are some patients who were able to take control and become stable even when plagued by the worst symptoms and they experience a somewhat decline in the amount of pain and uncomfortable effects of their condition. Many people completely recover from this dreaded syndrome, while there are others who were not able to reach remission or even stability from the symptoms.
In general, fatigue is the most common sign of this condition. The tiredness that a patient feel never seems to go away no matter how many hours of sleep or rest they get. In some cases, excessive tiredness is caused by other medical problems, so if the fatigue and tiredness you feel seems persistent, it would be best for you to go to a doctor and have yourself diagnosed as early on as possible.

labels can be a big problem. Stick with the symptom and look for correlations and causes in life. I have a book for patients called “Symptoms of Unknown Origin: a book for a patients and families.” It lays out specific steps toward solving puzzling symptoms.
