The VideoHealth Study: for patients with CFS and their partners

The study is free for eligible individuals. Couples will be paid up to $300 for their time and effort.
You’re eligible to participate if you:

Have diagnosis of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Can identify a partner who is willing to be a part of the study
