People are going more and more to see Chronic Fatigue Syndrome doctors because their specialty is understanding and discerning the differences between common illnesses such as routine viral infections and flu or real chronic long term illnesses.  General practitioners are typically used to seeing flu and viral infections day in and day out and may not pick up on the chronic nature of your symptoms and other subtle differences between CFS and common illness.

That is why specialists have opened centers where Chronic Fatigue Syndrome doctors can practice and train others to understand the symptoms and treatments for this long term, chronic debilitating illness (find a center near you).  Patients who long have suffered from unexplained fatigue, joint pain, and poor concentration are getting diagnosed and treated daily now thanks to these specialists.
