Ive heard it said that patients who have chronic fatigue dont get back to what they did before when actually they can if they decide doing all the things they used to do is still what they want. It is not about self management of the condition, it is about getting better. This means calming and re-educating the nervous system, working with mind and body together for overall health and wellbeing.....a happy patient has just been discharged who is back at work in a demanding job, is aware of her reactions to things and how to change them or the activity, knows how to relax which is something she was unable to do before, has built cognitive and physical exercise tolerance to a good level and is continuing to improve this (as we all do) and is confident in her abilities again.....happy patient and therapist too :-)
