David Overton understands HHV-6 better than all the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome researchers combined.
One of the best discussions of HHV-6 online.
David Overton on HHV-6:
I started testing and treating HHV 6 because it can cause circulation problems and heart disease. I next found it can be part of acne, especially adult acne or rosacea. It is also a treatable cause of autoimmune problems, such as colitis, thyroid problems, rheumatology problems, multiple sclerosis (80% of cases) and other autoimmune conditions. I was surprised to see many neurological or nervous system problems improve with treatment for many of the herpes infections. Headaches, anxiety, mood changes, attention problems, memory problems, numbness, tingling, neuropathies, twitches and other problems often improved. This is because the herpes infections infect the nervous system.
HHV 6 grows inside white blood cells (lymphocytes, B cells, T cells, monocytes) and nerve cells and thus may not show on standard tests. Clues for this infection include abnormal:
• white blood cells
• abnormal red cells
• abnormal platelets
• abnormal urine tests
• abnormal liver or kidney tests
• abnormal circulation tests, including high cholesterol or CRP (C reactive protein)
