What could be some possible causes of chronic fatigue?

Unfortunately, there are no answers as to what causes chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) in most individual cases but there are theories that say some causes are related to allergies, anemia, depression, hypoglycemia, hypotension, viral infections, mental illness and stresses. Basic signs and symptoms of chronic fatigue include fatigue itself, loss of memory or concentration, a sore throat, painful and mildly enlarged lymph nodes in your neck or armpits, unexplained muscle pain, pain that moves from one joint to another without swelling or redness, headache of a new type, pattern or severity, unrefreshing sleep, extreme exhaustion lasting more than 24 hours after physical or mental exercise and simply unable to get motivated for long periods of time. Actual physical symptoms of chronic fatigue can include abdominal pain, allergies or sensitivities to foods, alcohol, odors, chemicals, medications or noise, bloating, chest pain, chronic cough, diarrhea, dizziness, balance problems or fainting, dry mouth, earache, irregular heartbeat, jaw pain, morning stiffness, nausea, chills and night sweats, psychological problems, such as depression, irritability, anxiety disorders and panic attacks, shortness of breath, tingling sensations, visual disturbances, such as blurring, sensitivity to light, eye pain and dry eyes as well as weight loss or gain.

Many of these symptoms are also quite common for other illnesses and can also be effects from normal living stress. It is advisable to seek medical advice for any concerns relating to chronic fatigue or their symptoms.

The main cause or causes of chronic fatigue have not yet been determined. This condition has been linked to a lot of factors such as; * Deficiency of essential nutrients in the body *Serious mental and physical stress * Chronic Viral Infections such as cytomegalovirus and Coxsackie viruses B1 and B4 * Chronic bacterial Infections * Depression * Anemia * Hypoglycemia (Low blood sugar) * Malfunction in the body’s immune system *Hormonal changes and malfunction *Acute and chronic low blood pressure (also known as hypotension) Any problem that reduces the body’s normal rate of metabolism and also affects the immune system can trigger chronic fatigue. Since the cause is not known yet, there is no specific treatment for it; doctors try to relieve the symptoms effectively with different types of treatments.

There are several factors which may cause chronic fatigue. Not all the factors listed below are causes to every case of chronic fatigue and no tests, whether it be blood tests or brain scans can conclusively diagnose the condition of chronic fatigue. Medical professionals believe chronic fatigue develops from a variety of factors which include genetic factors, abnormalities of the brain, overactive immune system, viral infections and emotional instability.

Many people with chronic fatigue had a viral infection or a traumatic emotional even before the onset of chronic fatigue. Most patients report some moderate-to-serious physical illness (such as a chronic viral infection) or emotional event (like an episode of depression) before CFS. Some experts theorize that such events, alone or in combination, may interact with certain neurologic and genetic abnormalities to trigger CFS.It is believed that these events trigger the condition because they interact with genetic or neurological abnormalities the person may have.

It's still very much a medical mystery what other symptoms are and what actually causes the condition since experts cannot pinpoint it to any specific problem in the body.
