No, you cannot die from CFS. IT can cause depression and is very dificult to deal with but is not deadly.
The problem is properly diagnosing the cause of CFS. According to the book 'America's Biggest Cover-Up: 50 More Things Everyone Should Know About The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Epidemic And Its Link To AIDS', in 1993, a leading CFS researcher, Dr Paul Cheney reported that five of his twenty CFS patients died in that year- two committed suicide and three, like AIDS patients, succumbed to overwhelming infections that their damaged immune systems just couldn't fight off.
There is much speculation that CFS patients may have similar immune system deficiencies as so-termed 'non-HIV AIDS' cases.
No. Chronic Fatigue is a conditions that makes you feel extremely fatigued, gives you unusual moods swings and can also contribute to a weight gain dew to it slowing the metabolism.
There is no cure but it does go away by itself(so there really isn't a point). A person usually only has it for three years but for some it can last up to eight.
Although, after having it you are never really the "same", you may feel slightly tired some days and may need a nap but thats the height of it.
People with CFS have debilitating fatigue that lasts for six months or longer
no.
Yes
Noninfectious diseases are not spread from one person to another. Many are chronic diseases, which means they can last for a long lime. The answer is chronic.
CHRONIC NON-DYSENTERIC INFECTION. Individuals may experience symptoms over a long period of time.and experience recurrent episodes of diarrhea.These patients may also suffer from abdominal cramps, fatigue, and weight loss.
Chronic constipation is when one has a difficulty straining or having difficulty passing stools. Some chronic constipation are temporary some last for ever so it is important to see a doctor.
The normal amount of time, life expectancy is NOT affected by sticklers syndrome
Cone cell fatigue is when the cone cell gets tired after looking at an object for so long.
Joe has a chronic cough. The patient suffers from chronic fatigue. Both are instances where chronic illustrates a lengthy time the subject has been suffering. tired all the time = chronic fatigue. Coughing all the time = chronic cough
Chronic fatigue syndrome can be extremely hard to diagnose as it shares several symptoms with other diseases and conditions including, among others, the rare lupus, depression and the devastating multiple sclerosis. The situation is also further complicated by the fact that there are various medications that, when taken for an extended period of time, bring about symptoms that are disturbingly similar to those associated with chronic fatigue syndrome. In an attempt to ensure that chronic fatigue syndrome is not misdiagnosed, the CDC (Center for Disease Control and Prevention) has listed two requirements that need to be fulfilled before a diagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome can be made. These requirements are, firstly, a previously-unexperienced and presently inexplicable sense of extreme fatigue that accompanies everything that a person does and, secondly, at least four of a given list of related symptoms. These specified four - or more - symptoms must, furthermore, have been experienced for at least six months. The CDC has gone on to list those symptoms that are most commonly associated with confirmed cases of chronic fatigue syndrome, and the best way to recognize the syndrome is therefore to compare a list of suspected symptoms to the list of predetermined symptoms and see if there’s a match. The predetermined list of symptoms includes such things as multiple-joint pain, sore throat and muscle pain, and, given the general nature of these symptoms, it can easily be seen why the syndrome is so often misdiagnosed. Further symptoms on the CDC’s hit-list include impaired concentration, lymph nodes that are painful to the touch and unusual headaches. There are also several symptoms that have been identified in a significant number of cases but not in enough cases to warrant inclusion on the CDC’s list. These related symptoms include such things as irritable bowel syndrome - which is a nasty condition all by itself - sensitivity to bright light and regular bouts of dizziness. Further sub-symptoms - which may or may not indicate the presence of CFS - include food allergies, panic attacks and night chills. Chronic fatigue syndrome is a debilitating condition and is especially insidious when remaining undiagnosed for long periods of time.
The length varies. I've had a chronic illness for 6 years and should grow out of it. Some are life long.
two weeks
In short yes. If you mean continuous, long lasting, slowly developing. Physically your body does not perform as it once did and you face everyday challenges such as, chronic pain, chronic fatigue, limitation, loss of ability. It affects your responsibilities, relationships and personal identity.

A chronic condition.
It really depends on what you're talking about. If it's chronic fatigue it lasts for years, but if it's a cold you would get better in 3-7 days
chronic = lasting a long time /recurring often Last winter I had chronic bronchitis and ended up in hospital for 3 days.
THERE ARE MANY: most forms of cancer, emphysema, heart disease, lung diseases, bone diseases, blood disorders, mental illness, chronic circulatory disease, chronic fatigue, etc...etc...........
After about five to ten days, HUS can develop, which is characterized by paleness, irritability, and fatigue, as well as reduced urine production.
Chronic is the word that describes an illness/disease that is either incurable or something that has to run it's course, whether long term or recurring.
