Need a little help please

Sent my questionaire in to the Biobank after being accepted. They also want me to have a neighbor contact them! Because of the stigma of cfs, my neighbors don't have a clue about me. I can sit down for SEVERAL hours and try to educate one of them, if this is something the Biobank has to have to proceed. I would appreciate anyone who has taken this step to PM me about what they might need to know from the neighbor?

Hi Jimbob,

I don't know what Biobank is and I'm not sure why they want to contact your neighbor. I looked for other blog posts and found nothing. Can you explain a little more? And it's possible you would get more response if you started a thread rather than posting this as a blog.
 
yes starryeyes, the solve cfs biobank in charlotte, N.C., where researchers can go for their studies. I can't find anybody who is in it for info. I put up notices at cfids, xmrv global, wpi and our site and came up empty.
 
Have you contacted the CFIDS Association and asked this question? There used to be a "contact us" button on their home page, www.cfids.org. Dr. Vernon is in charge of the biobank, I believe.
 
I guess it's a moot point now after starting Raltegravir that Biobank never got back to me after I sent in questionaire!
