Two cases of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) were reported which were suggestive for the study of the etiology and a cure for CFS. Case 1: A 31-year-old woman was admitted for chronic fatigue syndrome. Examination revealed a high titer of anti HHV-6 antigen of x2560 and an increased percentage of suppressor T lymphocytes in the peripheral blood. HHV-6 was speculated to be reactivated and stimulating the immune system in CFS. Case 2: A 46-year-old woman suffering from CFS had been in remission for 6 years. She was admitted for hypertension associated with right adrenal adenoma and hyperaldosteronism. After right adrenalectomy, there was a recurrence of high fever and other CFS symptoms. It was suggested that CFS symptoms may be ameliorated by aldosterone.
