Chronic Fatigue Syndrome isn't as big as it was in the late 80's early 90's. I think it failed because of how ludicrous it was. It was basically a diagnosis for laziness. My sister in laws sister in law was actually out on permanent disability for this.

Well, not always. But each of the items you listed can be a symptom of a disease, e.g. high blood pressure or diabetes.
