Infectious Causes of Psychiatric Illnesses


 "Over the years, numerous studies have demonstrated a link between chronic viral infections and a number of conditions that alter brain function. For example, research has shown a number of chronic viral infections can be found in patients with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). Viruses such as Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), CMV, and several herpes viruses (e.g., Herpes 1, 6, 7 – HSV-1, HHV-6, HHV-7) cause or contribute to the symptoms of a large percentage of patient with CFS."

"Careful studies have shown 70% of patients with CFS had active HHV-6 infection through the use of primary cell cultures and confirmation using assays of monoclonal antibodies specific for HHV-6 proteins and by PCR. Moreover, a higher proportion of CFS patients have multiple simultaneous infections, such as HHV-6 and HHV-7."
