Official Title: Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing as a Diagnostic Tool and a Quantitative Measure of Post-exertional Malaise in Myalgic Encephalopathy/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Brief Summary: Circumstantial evidence suggests that patients diagnosed with myalgic encephalopathy/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) perform worse on day 2 in a 2-day consecutive cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET). The aim of this study is to examine if CPET can distinguish between ME/CFS patients and healthy controls.
