This study tested whether a walking program could help people with ME/CFS feel better. Twenty patients with ME/CFS walked for 12 weeks at a pace matched to their fitness level. The researchers found that patients reported improvements in psychological stress and some other symptoms, and importantly, the walking did not make their ME/CFS symptoms worse.
