What to do with too many doctors and not enough answers for chronic fatigue syndrome. Any suggestions?

I've been diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome by my GP when he doesn't really believe the condition exists. Therefore he's not treating me for it. Initial ekg and pulse-ox tests were normal, so no cardiologist or pulmonologist referrals.
Over the past few years, I've been to a Asthma/Allergist for seasonal allergies, a Hematologist for anemia, GI for irritable bowel syndrome and GERD, a GYN resulting in a partial hysterectomy, and a psychiatrist for depression and anxiety, all in hopes of treating my fatigue. None of these have helped, I'm still thoroughly exhausted all the time.
I can't work, in the traditional sense, but told I'm not disabled. I don't know what to do. Every online, work-at-home job turns out to be a scam.
I'm at my wits end...any suggestions?

you could try private doctors who look at this problem seriously and are upto date with new medical research and treatment options-many of these doctors think there is a strong link between cfs and infection-
study the website below for more information-there seems to be newish research to back up many of their claims
