Retroviral link to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
November 20, 2009 | Charleston, South Carolina | Vetting explained
Dr. Gupta,
A significant report on October 8th, 2009 came out in regards to a possible retroviral link to chronic fatigue syndrome (http://www.cancer.gov/newscenter/pressreleases/CFSxmrv) and possibly (hopefully) fibromyalgia. What is your take on this discovery? I can find nothing about this on CNN.com. I've suffered from fibromyalgia for years and have been treated as though I am a mental patient rather than someone who is suffering from a "legitimate" disease. Millions of us need help now.
