Fatigue, a subjective and non-specific complaint, is one of the commonest presenting symptoms in primary care. It can be potentially disabling if not managed appropriately. The aim of this symposium is to enable the general practitioner to acquire the skills for early identification, assessment and management of fatigue. This may help to avoid the distress and poor outcome that is associated with this symptom.
