"Submit Questions to Dr. Mikovits for Advance Consideration
Attendees at the January 22 event in Santa Barbara will be able to question Dr. Mikovits directly about XMRV research progress, findings, testing, and plans. But to address the questions of those participating online, Dr. Mikovits invites you to submit questions now for her consideration in advance."

I hope the scientists on this forum will come up with some good questions for her. And for those who live near Santa Barbara, what a wonderful opportunity. I hope you will be having a good enough day to participate.

On the pro health boards ! Judy Mikovits !

Presentation and Q&A with XMRV Researcher Dr. Judy Mikovits to Be Streamed Live Friday Jan 22:

I hope the moderators don't mind me advertising this because this presentation could change our lives. I'm not sure what to expect but at least it's something. The wait is becoming intolerable.
The date is quite interesting, isn't that the day, exactly one year ago that the virus was discovered/confirmed ?

Kind regards, Mark

That's very exciting!

There should be much more known about replications studies by then, too.

This is big!

Thanks for posting, Mark!

Hope they make a copy

If we all hit the stream at once we could take the site down. Does anyone know if there are alternative sites streaming as well? If not I'll volunteer to wait and watch the YouTube version.

I wonder what kind of questions to ask, that she CAN answer (not embargoed) :confused:
It's a month away, I really really wish that all the doctors in the world would watch it too!!!!

1/22 Dr. Miikovits talk

hi

my 47th b-day is on the 22nd.

i have been sick for almost 6 years...since my son was 2 years old...he doesn't believe that i know how to ski, ride a bike, rock climb, skateboard, etc....

do you think the "gods" would be gracious and giving enough to have Dr. Mikovits announce a treatment that will end my debilitating fatigue on my birthday.

then maybe this year i can do all of those activities with my son for the first time : )

we can only hope : )

warmest regards, lisa

I was just informed that tickets are still available to this event. Dr. Mikovits is very personable and happy to answer questions - thats my experience of her; I'm sure she'll be willing to stick around and talk to patients. If you can there it would probably be well worth it.

Lisa, you deserve some excellent news on your birthday and your son deserves a bike ride with his mommy this summer... Hang on!!

18 more sleeps before the big talk- can't wait.

I really wish I could go- unfortunately my health is still getting worse and worse. So will watch from my pillow...

I've submitted a question.

Anyone heard about statement of testing the blood supply? I was expecting that in November. Remember, they guy at the CFSAC meeting over blood safety said within a couple of weeks they would have a statement (or plan of action).
