Dr. Bell's expertise on chronic fatigue syndrome derives from extensive clinical practice and research. In addition to numerous medical articles on CFS, his related books include A Doctor's Guide to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, The Disease of a Thousand Names, and Cellular Hypoxia and Neuro-Immune Fatigue.
