CDC: ME is accompanied by neurologic and muscular signs and has a case definition distinct from that of CFS

‎"The name myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) was coined in the 1950s to clarify well-documented outbreaks of disease; however, ME is accompanied by neurologic and muscular signs and has a case definition distinct from that of CFS."

    Indeed, trivial things like cleaning your teeth can produce delayed fatigue which leaves you bed bound.
