This isn’t just “being tired”. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS/ME) is a condition where even small tasks can feel exhausting, and sleep doesn’t restore energy. It affects around 250,000 people in the UK [1], and similar fatigue can accompany many chronic illnesses.
Symptoms
Persistent exhaustion not improved by rest.
“Brain fog” and difficulty concentrating.
Unrefreshing sleep and muscle or joint pain.
Dizziness or flu-like symptoms.
If you are suffering from any of these symptoms, you may be suffering from arthritis. Please speak with your GP to find out more.
Treatment Options
Managing CFS/ME focuses on pacing, rest, and symptom control. While CBPMs can’t cure fatigue, they can ease the symptoms that make it worse.
THC may improve sleep quality and reduce pain that drains energy.
CBD supports relaxation and helps balance mood. Together they can make rest more restorative and help patients regain energy and focus during the day.
