Guest guest Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 A new website has been put together by a group of ME/CFS patients, under the P.A.N.D.O.R.A. umbrella. As you are aware, there are many overlapping symptoms between ME/CFS and autism. Some speculate that the underlying cause is the same. The mission of the group is simple...to raise ME/CFS awareness and direct funds into research. 6 sample ads are on the website for viewing. The group hopes to get the first ad in the Washington Post in a few weeks. With the new XMRV/MLV research by Mikovits and subsequent study by Alter/Lo, it is especially important to pursue this avenue of research now. At the recent NJCFSA Conference in NJ, Dr. Mikovits presented a small study where 50% of the XMRV patient's family members were also positive for XMRV. While this is a hopeful explanation for autism, no formal studies have been completed. Please visit MCWPA.org to see the ads and vote for your choice. It's time to make a little noise. If you agree and vote on an ad, please donate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
