In the last 2 days I have noticed that all of my nails (toe and finger) have turned half reddish/brown.  Is this another symptom of CFS or something worth chasing up in terms of a different diagnosis? 

Thanks

    Hi! I had this problem 5 years ago and it passed after approximately one month. Neurologist sent me to a doctor who checked my nails under the microscope and did temperature measurements of my fingers. I forgot the name of that tests. He said that I have Raynaud Syndrom. I don’t know if that is linked to CFS since at that time I was told to have polyneuropathy. Few weeks ago my diagnosis was changed to CFS so I’m still learning about the illness no matter that I have it for 5 and a half years. First diagnosis was most probably wrong.
