Chronic fatigue is a symptom of many conditions, while Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) is a complex multi system illness. ME/CFS often occurs after infections but the pathogenesis is not certain. The syndrome "Long COVID" may be a subset of ME/CFS or a distinct condition. An array of symptoms is required for ME/CFS diagnosis, with the most distinctive symptom being post-exertional malaise (PEM). ME/CFS cannot be improved by exercise or psychiatric treatment.
