Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Research

Researchers and those who suffer from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome felt a ray of

hope a couple of years ago when a possible link between a mouse retrovirus,

XMRV, and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome was discovered. Through further study, that

connection has largely unraveled. Since then, research to discover possible

causes and treatments for Chronic Fatigue has been a priority for the CFIDS

Association of America, which is headquartered in Charlotte. We'll talk to the

CEO and Scientific Director of the organization to hear about the progress

they've made.
