Nancy Klimas considers XMRV in CFS

Thanks for the great video.

The prospect of a potential diagnostic test is very exciting to me. (CFS)

I find the thoughts of someone being overwhelmed with joy at being diagnosed with a retrovirus rather funny and ironic, but an indication of how dismal it is to live with undiagnosed and grossly misunderstood illness.

Dr. Klimas,

Thank you for your measured and articulate respons, to the coordinated research and attention that CFIDS/ME is now receiving and great hope to what this means for advances in treating this illness.

Dr. Limas,

Thank you for presenting this information and keeping us "grounded" out here in Stigma Land. It is good to know we are moving forward. Thank you for taking the time to present this in a clear and positive manner. There is so much "stuff" out there that is not clear and their is so little respect and relief.

If the illness doesn't get you, the collateral damge will. Keep talking to us, it means more than you can ever imagine.

So spot on about the collateral damage

Thanks for this, Dr. Klimas. It's good to hear a level head telling it like it is instead of ranting.

By the way, Dr Klimas, you do make one point on which you made me smile quite a bit. You said that the Illness was being taken seriously these days. You apparently aren't in touch with the ME scene in the UK!!!

or in France for that matter... When you speak of ME to a French doctor, they just don't know wtf you are talking about...

Hey, thanks so much for this video. Nice to see a female sounding smart and educating the public on 'science'. And the process of scientific discoveries includes repeating the studies, getting patients to be research participants, and then....we can get more data and come to more specific conclusions. Pure science and ethical researchers ROCK! Dr M
