There are many syndromes that the mainstream western medicine is unable to alleviate, such as ME/CFS/Fibromyalgia, POTS*, chronic pain, etc
The reason is that their causes are systemic and one discipline can not address all the levels of many systems contributing to the suffering and pain, such as external factors and environment (Functional medicine is slowly gaining ground but is not covered by NHS or public health insurance, thus unaffordable to many).
