Some people with chronic fatigue-related conditions may be suffering from
neurotoxicity. Many people suffer from neurotoxicity and have never been
diagnosed or treated for this condition.

If a person with chronic fatigue also has problems with short-term memory,
learning, personality changes, depression, irritability, numbess, sleep
disorder, headaches, sensitivity to environmental chemicals, etc., and
they have had significant exposure to neurotoxic agents (solvents,
pesticides, etc.), they may wish to consider an evaluation for
neurobehavioral toxicity.

For referrals for such an evaluation, contact your doctor. Seek a
neuropsychologist (board-certified or other evidence of competance) with
extensive experience in toxicology. If you need documentation for
litigation purposes in addition to a diagnosis for medical purposes, a
neuropsychologist experienced in forensic applications may be helpful.
