N of 1 trials. Managing patients with chronic fatigue syndrome: two case reports.

E Wiebe1.   

Abstract

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a heterogeneous condition with as proves effective treatment. I present two case reports in which N of 1 trials helped me make management decisions. High-dose vitamin B12 injections were ineffective in one case; nimodipine was very effective in the other case.
