Post-exertional malaise (PEM) is the hallmark clinical feature of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS).
“Post-exertional malaise (PEM) is the hallmark clinical feature of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS).”
Todd E. Davenport

“Characteristically, after an initial viral insult patients have relapsing and remitting mental and physical exhaustion, which is brought on by varying degrees of physical and mental exertion and relieved by rest, the fatigue often being accompanied by consistent associated symptoms. These people cope at a reduced level of activity because of ill health, not fear of ill health.”
Karen Prince
