My experience is similar to yours...CFS following viral infection which never cleared up, but pre-existing stressors were probably more important. Dealing with the stress, allowing my body/brain to heal, then slowly building my life back up again resulted in complete resolution.
If you look at how the brain works, there is quite a lot of evidence pointing towards chronic stress resulting in CFS-like symptoms. I suspect the culprit is the "central governor" region of the brain (which is involved in central fatigue).

- 0bsidian 9y agoIs there any chance you would be willing to share some information on how you dealt with the stress? I suffer from a combination of vestibular and CFS symptoms, very similar to yours, and your message (and /u/tomhoward's comment) gave me some hope. If it's easier, my email address is in my profile. Thank you so much, it would really mean a lot to me.
