Has anyone directly undertaken any in-depth analysis relating to CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome)?

If by 'indepth analysis' you mean risk assessment, yes, I have.

Should you wish to have a brief chat about the options, you can reach me on 020 8654 0808 or at kieran@simplyenabling.com

British Thesis are generally available for free to download (-not all as they are in the process of being digitised)

Go to the British Library thesis site http://ethos.bl.uk/Home.do and search for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, selecting the box that restricts the search to downloadable items only. You should then find the sort of research you need - you will have to register, but the download is free.

Hi

There is clinical guidnace here from NICE, and you should be able to pick up research sources from the full pdf report. http://guidance.nice.org.uk/CG53

Also, there is an ME/CFS support group who may be able to point you in the right direction. http://www.mesupportgroup.co.uk/bbmeservice.html

Are you looking to aid someone in the workplace who has ME?

Regards
Ian
