Fatigue is a difficult symptom to accurately assess and quantify due to its subjective nature. Marie Thomas discusses the uncertainties and difficulties in its diagnosis as well as the broader effects of fatigue on quality of life. Fatigue is an increasingly reported problem in primary care, and one that is associated with other chronic conditions as a secondary symptom. Using several case studies, this book describes how in many cases, a patient's primary condition can be managed; however General Practitioners are left unable to address the fatigue experienced, especially in older adults. Chapters consider the interventions that exist to manage fatigue - especially in the case of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) - before highlighting the lack of strategies in primary care for dealing with the problem. In the final chapter Thomas discusses potential interventions and gives recommendations for future research regarding fatigue. This book will be of interest to academics and practitioners in healthcare and psychology, as well as to patient groups and those who care for individuals with fatigue. 606 $aClinical health psychology 606 $aMedicine$xHistory 606 $aMedical policy 606 $aMedicine, Psychosomatic 606 $aNeuropsychology 606 $aHealth Psychology 606 $aHistory of Medicine 606 $aHealth Policy 606 $aPsychosomatic Medicine 606 $aNeuropsychology 615 0$aClinical health psychology. 615 0$aMedicine$xHistory. 615 0$aMedical policy. 615 0$aMedicine, Psychosomatic. 615 0$aNeuropsychology. 615 14$aHealth Psychology. 615 24$aHistory of Medicine. 615 24$aHealth Policy. 615 24$aPsychosomatic Medicine. 615 24$aNeuropsychology. 676 $a616.89 700 $aThomas$b Marie$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0766458 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910392721203321 996 $a?Tired all the Time?$91559435 997 $aUNINA
