I'm feeling really tired and exhausted all the time and I'm wondering if it might be chronic fatigue. Does anyone else have experience with this? Can anyone offer any advice on how to tell if it's chronic fatigue or just regular tiredness? I'd really appreciate any help or insight anyone can offer.

Chronic fatigue can be hard to diagnose since its symptoms are shared with many other conditions. However, if you have been experiencing fatigue for an extended period of time, accompanied by other signs such as headaches, muscle pain, joint pain, or difficulty sleeping, then you may be suffering from chronic fatigue. It is recommended that you consult with your doctor or a specialist to get the correct diagnosis. Your doctor may suggest a variety of tests to determine if you are suffering from chronic fatigue, such as blood tests, sleep studies or even an exercise treadmill test. Additionally, your doctor may want to review your medical history to rule out any other underlying medical issues.
