I'm looking at Valcyte too. I seem to have a chronic HHV-7
reactivation. There are only a few studies on HHV-7 while there are
tons more on HHV-6. Since both are nearly similar some scientists say
that they can cause the same symptoms and HHV-6 can cause a lot, not
to mention it's defense lowering effects that makes the body prone to
lots of other illnesses (MC, Cancer etc.).
The best site on HHV6 definetly is http://www.hhv-6foundation.org/.
They have all the latest info on it, as well as the best scientists in
this field.

That would be genious. I'd like to know that too. Valcyte can cause
cancer in animals, it can affect blood cells and bone marrow. It's
funny that they don't make any progress in the viral field.

It's scary that they are allowed the title immunologist while
actually they know so little and act the opposite. Their knowledge is
based on what they learned in university and that's it. This is just a
waste of brain. Develope a DVD that lists all symptoms, let the user
type in the symptoms. Now bring up the tests the user is supposed to
do. Make those tests. Type in the test results and bring up the most
probable illness. Show the treatment. Done. You don't need very
intelligent people for that. You need the most intelligent people
however to connect the dots on pubmed and develope that DVD and the
tests and the treatment. To connect symptom to test and treatment
could nearly be done by anyone.

Maybe I should give Chlorella a try but I'm almost allergic to
anything. I had total IgE`s of 8000 on a regular basis. Intestinal IgA
is nearly non existent anymore and pancreatic output is low as well.
NKs are down, RNase is up as is Elastase. My doctor says the virus
attacks the intestine and by that causes all the trouble you see in so
many people with CFS.
I wonder why you are doing so good mentally. I noticed a huge decline
in mental abbilities when everything started 5 years ago. There could
be lots of reasons, one being this:
"Dr Hiro Kuratsune from Japan gave a summary of what is known about
brain function in ME/CFS. It has been known for over a decade that
frontal and tem****al lobe blood flow is reduced in ME/CFS, and that
exercise exacerbates this reduced blood flow for up to 72 hours. The
new evidence is that elevated elastase and RNase-L levels correlate
with reduced blood flow. It is known that the MRI is abnormal in the
majority of people with ME/CFS due to numerous T2 weighted
hypertintense foci, with evidence of demyelination."
