You should research Chronic Fatigue Syndrome / Myalgic encephalomyelitis.

The medical community, from my experience, does not handle this type of diagnosis well.

I’ve experienced post-viral fatigue symptoms that lasted well over 8 months, and almost all doctors I visited (ranging from primary care to neurologists) suggested simply rest and/or believed it was depression related (even though I have never suffered from depression before).

I hope your wife gets better. Remission from these symptoms is possible, but sadly, I don’t think you’ll get more information out of the doctors.
