T T ANG 'S Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) first gained the attention of the public in 1980s. The difficult with defining the syndrome is with the fact that it is easier to identify what the syndrome excludes than what it includes. Although CFS had been found to occur to children, teenagers, and people in their fifties, sixties, and even seventies, the most prone to the illness are adults from their mid-twenties to their late forties. Women are afflicted anywhere from twice to three times as often as men, although there are indications that cases among men are rising. Some common causes of CFS are nutritional deficiency, acquired toxicity ( from environment, food and drugs); poor stress-coping abilities; over dependent on vitamins; drugs addiction. Other factors that contribute to CFS might be recurrent viral and bacterial infections; reaction of immune system to vaccination and immunization; bowel toxemia and infestation of fungi, protozoa, and parasites and lifestyle factors ( inadequate sleep, exercise and relaxation). The result, is a slow process of depleting the body's energy - qi, thus weakening the body and making the body vulnerable to viruses. Base on the TCM concept supported by books written in the year 259 namely AB Classic Of Acupuncture & Moxibustion, in the 3rd Century - The Classic Of Sphymology and the year 1220 - Enquirer On Acupuncture & Moxibustion Therapy and many others, have all proven that related CFS symptoms are neurasthenia, lost of memory, irritation, globus hystericus and "Ben Dun" which is a feeling of masses of gas ascending within the abdomen like running piggies, usually seen in cases of gastro-intestinal neurosis which indicated in the acupuncture channel as due to Chong meridian disorder. CFS also belongs to the categories of 'shi mian' (insomnia); 'dou men' (dreamful sleep); 'xuan yun' (dizziness); 'yang wei' (impotence), 'yijing' (spermatorrhea); etc. Such symptoms will gain special benefit and relieve from acupuncture, acu-massage tendon manipulation therapy since ancient time.
