What Is Chronic Fatigue Syndrome?

CHRONIC FATIGUE SYNDROME, ALSO KNOWN AS MYALGIC ENCEPHALOMYELITIS (CFS/ME), IS A COMPLEX AND OFTEN MISUNDERSTOOD CONDITION CHARACTERISED BY EXTREME, PERSISTENT FATIGUE THAT ISN’T RELIEVED BY REST. THIS FATIGUE CAN WORSEN WITH PHYSICAL OR MENTAL ACTIVITY AND IS OFTEN ACCOMPANIED BY A RANGE OF OTHER DEBILITATING SYMPTOMS.

Common symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome include

Severe fatigue and low energy levels that interfere with daily life.

Sleep disturbances, including unrefreshing sleep and difficulty staying asleep.

Cognitive difficulties such as brain fog, memory issues, and difficulty concentrating.

Muscle and joint pain, headaches, or sore throat.

Post-exertional malaise, where symptoms worsen after physical or mental exertion.

Sensitivities to light, sound, or certain chemicals.

The exact cause of CFS/ME is not fully understood, but it is often linked to factors such as:

Mitochondrial dysfunction, affecting the body’s ability to produce energy.

Chronic inflammation and immune system dysregulation.

Viral infections or other chronic infections.

Environmental exposures such as mould

Hormonal imbalances or adrenal dysfunction.

Gut health issues, including leaky gut or dysbiosis.

Limitations of Conventional Treatments:

Conventional approaches to CFS/ME often focus on symptom management, such as improving sleep or reducing pain, without addressing the root causes of the condition. This can leave many individuals feeling frustrated and searching for a more comprehensive approach to their health.

At the Autoimmune Clinic London, we focus on uncovering and addressing these underlying factors. By identifying the root causes of your fatigue and designing a personalised strategy, we aim to help you restore energy, improve overall wellbeing, and regain control of your life.

Conditions that can mimic symptoms of CFS/ME:

ME/CFS can sometimes be undiagnosed autoimmunity, MCAS, or CIRS due to overlapping symptoms such as fatigue, cognitive dysfunction, and systemic inflammation.

Autoimmunity involves immune dysregulation targeting the body's tissues, MCAS results in excessive histamine release causing widespread symptoms, and CIRS arises from chronic biotoxin exposure; all can mimic or contribute to ME/CFS, complicating diagnosis without specific testing.

How we can help you

At the Autoimmune Clinic, we take a holistic, functional medicine approach to managing chronic fatigue syndrome. Our focus is on identifying and addressing the root causes of your condition, enabling you to take control of your health and achieve lasting improvements in your quality of life.

90 minute initial appointment

During this time we dive deep into your personal health story and medical history. Areas we may cover include:

Diet, lifestyle, infections, environmental exposures (past and present), your family health history, stress, etc.

We start connecting the dots for you to understand your health picture better.

We also revisit your existing results together and how they fit into the picture, making sense of it all for you.

Comprehensive Testing

We begin by conducting advanced tests to identify the factors contributing to your fatigue, such as:

Inflammatory Markers
Environmental Triggers: Determining if an exposure to mould for instance may contribute to symptoms
Nutritional Deficiencies
Hormonal Imbalances
Gut Health: Investigating issues like dysbiosis, leaky gut, SIBO or food sensitivities.

Personalised Nutrition Plans

Your diet plays a crucial role in restoring energy and managing chronic fatigue syndrome.

We design meal plans tailored to:

Reduce inflammation with anti-inflammatory foods.
Support energy production through nutrient-dense options.
Improve gut health and optimise nutrient absorption.
Support blood sugar balance

Lifestyle and Stress Management

Stress and poor sleep can exacerbate symptoms of CFS/ME.

We provide guidance on:

Incorporating stress-reduction techniques, such as mindfulness or yoga.
Pacing activities to prevent post-exertional malaise.
Improving sleep quality with lifestyle adjustments and supportive practices.

Targeted Supplementation

We recommend evidence-based supplements to support energy production and repair, such as:

Omega 3s and Glutathione: To reduce inflammation and improve anti-oxidant status
Magnesium and B Vitamins: For enhanced energy and nervous system support.
Gut Support and Probiotics: To restore gut balance and improve immune regulation.

Ongoing Support and Guidance

Follow up appointments are needed to continue to build on the foundations that we put in place, to keep you motivated, on track and engaged with the process.

From experience, we see more successful outcomes when individuals are committed to a series of appointment over a period of time to achieve real long lasting improvement in their symptoms and condition.

Continuity of work also allow us to build a relationship and for you to feel supported.
