Isn't it time to start treating Chronic Fatigue Syndrome like the viral illness it is?


Dr. Theodore Henderson: Treating CFS/ME as though it is caused by a virus
"Not surprisingly, those who have made a leap in their thinking about CFS/ME have found that treating it like a viral illness yields some success. Lerner and colleagues showed that treatment with the antiviral valacyclovir reduced symptoms of CFS/ME, as well as antibody titers and cardiac symptoms. Montoya and colleagues found that elevated antibody titers of EBV and HHV6 among patients with CFS/ME predicted a positive response to the antiviral valgancyclovir.9 In my own clinic, I have treated hundreds of patients with antivirals and found about 70% of the cases improve."
