My 15 year old granddaughter has Juvenile Chronic Fatigue. She has had it almost 2 years. Has anyone any experiences of dealing with it please ?

Unfortunately I don't know of any younger person with it but have found this online which I hope is helpful. My personal thoughts though are to look at the diet re how much of the food eaten is unnatural, which I'm really sad to say that I feel that a lot of our food is bad i.e. the manufacturers put so much rubbish in our food to make it last longer. It may be worth trying to eat as much organic food as the purse will possibly allow.

What are her symptoms and how do they affect her?

I was sorry to hear your granddaughter has been ill for the past two years, you must feel very worried for her and her parents. I have heard it linked with fibromyalgia, which is debilitating also.

The article mentioned below appears to be comprehensive and I believe worth a look. Take care and best wishes.
