Abstract
This investigation compared differences in the occurrence of symptoms in participants with CFS, melancholic depression, and no fatigue (controls). The following Fukuda et al. [Ann. Intern. Med. 121 (1994) 953] criteria symptoms differentiated the CFS group from controls, but did not differentiate the melancholic depression group from controls: Headaches, lymph node pain, sore throat, joint pain, and muscle pain. In addition, participants with CFS uniquely differed from controls in the occurrence of muscle weakness at multiple sites as well as in the occurrence of various cardiopulmonary, neurological, and other symptoms not currently included in the current case definition. Implications of these findings are discussed.
