You are very limited in Europe regarding ME/CFS specialist doctors, but in the US there are around 20 or so well-known specialists. Antiviral therapy is often used, which can bring benefits for some patients. The cause of ME/CFS is not known, but one theory is that this disease is due to chronic viral infection, hence the antiviral treatment. Other useful treatments include the methylation protocol, and low-dose naltrexone. You might find this roadmap of chronic fatigue syndrome treatment a useful introduction to ME/CFS treatment.
