 | | Patients with this diagnosis commonly report many other symptoms which are far more wide-ranging than these research diagnostic criteria, including: pain, muscle weakness, loss of brain function, hypersensitivity, orthostatic intolerance, digestive disturbances, depression, immune system weakness, and cardiac and respiratory problems. |
| | The dysautonomia that evidences itself in CFS shows up mostly in problems of orthostatic intolerance - the inability to stand up without feeling dizzy, faint, nauseated, etc. Research into the orthostatic intolerance found in CFS indicates it is very similar to that found in postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS). |
| | Celiac disease or gluten intolerance is known to cause CFS-like symptoms in some individuals, as is vitamin B12 or vitamin D deficiency. |
