I was diagnosed with CFS back in 1999 and recovered in 2006. Mono-type symptoms that never really went away.

I know with most auto-immune illnesses that there's also an emotional component too (like depression, or some childhood abuse or truma) that the emotional pain is triggering physical pain. So focusing on the emotional side of things through counseling, may also alleviate or ease some symptoms.

I'd also recommend keep moving, keep exercising even if you don't feel like it. Even if it's a slow walk around the block. For me, going to the gym has helped a lot.
