Thanks Brenda. A couple of other people had the answer. It is Myalgic Encephalitis-a form of chronic fatigue .

Myalgic Encephalitis. I think that’s the more current term for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

My(muscle)- itis(inflammation)). I think it would be so easier to understand whàt the person is going through, if their weren't abbrieviations.

If I don't know what a term or abreviation means, I will Google it. I can usually find it that way.
