Thank you anonymous for the three monkies post. That did help clarify the terms about what's a
retrovirus or just a regular every day 'virus'. And the post about the links with polio are very
'interesting'..I too am happy that some connections have been made and that this is not all
'in our heads' or some kind of psychological problem. That indeed is good news.
Getting back to the science part. Are not viruses very hard to treat? I don't want to get my
hopes up like everyone else but I do feel I lack understanding about what now goes on. In the
case of HIV they are able to improve the quality of life but a cure as such has not been found..if
I have that right. The same with cancer. Some surgery solves it...but some doesn't. The
same with other treatments. So, would it not be the same with CFS? That there may be some
improvements but not actually an end to it? Any input appreciated...
