Is fibromgalia,ME and chronic fatigue syndrome the same thing?

Question:

How do these illness affect day to day living,for example could you take children to school go shopping be able to hold a full time job etc.

Answers:
My late boyfriend's mother, and grandma to my son, has both. She worked up until a year ago after her son died. She has good days and bad. There isn't much doctors can do to help other than help relieve the symptoms with medications. There are alternative treatments someone with these illnesses could and should try. Check out the book by Kevin Treudeau, "Natural Cures, What They Don't Want You to Know".

Fybromyalgia is not the same as ME/CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome)

I was diagnosed as having CFS about 13 years ago, and 3 years ago was diagnosed as having Fybromyalgia as well. As you can imagine life can get pretty tough some times.

I run a support group for sufferers of CFS, and about 3 people in the group have Fybromyalgia too.
