Look for triggers of [[Symptom tracking|Symptoms]] like headaches. Needs to be done via self tracking because, vague, sublinical, problem is rare or user is well outside bell curve. Find [[Communities|Community]] to get support and even push an idea like CFS into medical community. [[Experiment VS Observational study]] for experiment design.
