Guest guest Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 For those of you who haven't or can't read about the breakthrough findings here is a Reno TV news interview with Annette Whittemore and Judy Mikovits on the new virus. There are a lot of advertisements at the beginning but the interview is very interesting. About 10 minutes. Mikovits says XMRV is causal and may play a role in autism. We should be able to treat it soon. Possible vaccine may be produced soon because it is a simple retrovirus, unlike HIV. If a person is infected with this retrovirus the following triggers will set off cfs symptoms: hormones inflammatory cytokines stress cortisol levels other infections raising cytokines vaccines which elevate cytokines - this may lead to autism if the person has XMRV Since this retrovirus is found in blood and tumors of some prostrate sufferes and possibily linked to autism there will be a lot of money and research. This is the biggest finding yet for CFS. XMRV lives in B and T cells http://nevadanewsmakers.com/video/default.asp?showID=938 Llois Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 I have seriously been crying all day after viewing this clip. My oldest son was sick all his short life with one infection after another. He was high-functioning autistic and died right before his 12th birthday from an asthma attack. Finally some answers!

Guest guest Posted October 17, 2009 Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 I am sorry for all your pain but I hope that the information can give you some peace. Loosing a child, I am told, is devastating...something that most of us will never understand the pain that it brings. May he rest in peace.

Guest guest Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 I'm so sorry to hear that you lost your oldest son. So did I, though he was almost 25 and died from complications after an auto accident. This time of year it always bothers me more, even though it's almost been 17 years.
