Possible relations to Addison's Disease

It has been proposed by some specialists that Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is a form of Addison's disease (referred to as adrenal insufficiency or hypoadrenalism). The following evidence has been presented 'In view of the 36 features shared by Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Addison’s disease, including hypocortisolism and a host of neuropsychological complaints[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] and investigations of the effects after supplementation with mineralocorticoids (fludrocortisone), low-dose hydrocortisone (cortisol) in the treatment of CFS’.[8][9][10][11]
