Dear TWiV,
If someone studies the gut virome of AIDS patients, I wish they would find a way to sprinkle in a few Chronic Fatigue Synndrome patients also. I have suffered greatly from CFS for 30 years, and feel intuitively that this is a clue to my illness. Thanks for the great shows.
PWC 30 years,
Todd in Tenn.
Todd, there are ongoing experiments to study the virome, as well as the gut microbiome, of CFS patients. I share your notion that the illness could involve imbalances in these ‘omes’. The results should be published within the next year.
