We're a sorry household, my other half was officially diagnosed with CFS yesterday, although thankfully they ruled out FM too. We already knew but needed it to be officially diagnosed, she's had it since having radiotherapy for breast cancer.
I had some in depth blood cultures done a few months back that explained a lot, turns out I have permanently active glandular fever. The consultant explained this is why I keep showing pneumonia type symptoms, and yet never have a temperature. It's basically tricking my immune system in to overdrive.
How do we cope? Some days I simply have no idea in all honesty. I guess we try and look after each other, that and compromise a lot.
