Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
CFS or chronic fatigue syndrome is a condition that may have both physical as well as psychogenic cause. The symptoms may be waxing and waning i.e. at times it might feel better while at other times it may feel worse. With medication and behavioral therapy it may go away completely but proper motivation is essential.
Hope that helps.
