OverStressed,

I just had another HTLV antibody test (7 months post exposure), which came back negative. You & I have symptoms of HTLV, as do many people at your medical center, as do people on this site, as do people on other sites. Is this some gigantic epidemic, or a coincidence? How long have you been testing? Do you get abscesses like I do?

Thanks for sharing.
