Despite fatigue being one of the most common symptoms presenting in primary care, clinicians and researchers were constrained by a lack of validated, reliable and fatigue-specific measures. In 1994, a Canadian group frustrated by this limitation developed the Fatigue Impact Scale (FIS)[1]. Since then, it remains one of the most widely used tools, although there now exist modified versions [the modified Fatigue Impact Scale (MFIS), the daily FIS, the unidimentional FIS and the abbreviated MFIS]. The FIS has been translated and validated in 30 languages.
