Yup, tho' I'll let Kate explain CFIDS. ME is 'myalgic encephalitis' tho' I'm
not sure why exactly, except that it affects the brain & there's muscle pain
(myalgia); there's a lot more symptoms than that, though. There's all sorts
of theories about what it is (some of them half-baked, some probably not).
