Diets Streamlined for Those with Disabling Chronic Conditions
(Revised) There are lots of diet plans to choose from. Each has its own claims to fame — or at least its promise of a more healthful eating lifestyle. Part of the problems with those diagnosed with syndromes and conditions like Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) and Fibromyalgia (FM) is that not everybody experiences exactly the same symptoms. For example, some with Fibromyalgia have Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS); others do not. Therefore, the same as not every treatment plan works for everyone diagnosed with CFS or FM, there isn’t a “one size fits all” eating regimen either. Many find they must match their diet with their (for lack of a better word) form of their disease, syndrome, or condition.

(Revised)
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, which is sometimes also referred to as Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (CFIDS) or Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (M.E. or ME), is an illness characterized by prolonged, devastating fatigue. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is often also characterized by overlapping allergies, sensitivities, and symptoms from other conditions. The same factors that can make diagnosis difficult also affect how these symptoms are treated. These resources provide information about the tests and treatment protocols available for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome:
In March 2000, the ABC show 20/20 had a segment about treatment for a condition that was showing promise for many diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and/or Fibromyalgia. Unfortunately, the ABC site no longer has the article about that segment online; however, now you can find an article about that information on the American College of Rheumatology site: A Surgical Cure for Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue? Reaction to an ABC News 20/20 Report.
In addition, this is some of the revised information online about Chiari syndrome and/or cervical spinal stenosis:
