I am just starting to look into his website.....so I am confused, not just because I am not a scientist, but he seems to hit on all of the cfs' population most pressing questions and instead of fretting about it he seems to feel confident that he has discovered a number of stealth viruses that could cause cfs or other health problems. It is amazing, he takes it farther imho than Peterson or Cheney or even WPI perhaps in that he has done the research and isn't limiting himself to just "cfs" per se.
So what I am confused about, is if he figured this out 20 yrs ago, what a lot of us still kick around he already knows, and some if it like the SV40 thing, I don't think there is any dispute that exists--yet, I never heard of it til this summer and no one ever suggests testing for hhv6 or htlv to rule out.....all the multitude of physical, mental, behavioral etc sort of problems we see nowadays, a lot of it could be related to stealth viruses, Martin got that, and is doing the ongoing work. Has he gotten govmt funding? If a lot of it is factual why have I been clowning around trying to research it as a lay person when people in physicians offices should have been educating me and everyone and suggesting tests or at least more understanding.
Seems like a lot of the puzzles are already known, I went to the HHV6 research site too, seems to me a lot of the stuff already discoverd and known could explain various cfs or other health issues, but that message hadnt been clearly conveyed to me at these boards and most definitely not from my phycians, even the well meaning ones.
Seems to me some of us should write a kickass eye grabbing barnes and noble/oprah type book and lay it out, yea its known, not speculation, sv40 from polio vax has killed a few kids etc yea htlv or hsv6 could be kicking your ass etc if your life isn't working maybe you need to rule these out.
Sorry if my diatribe is crude because of my lack of science education but is Martin known to be a crank or what is the dealio? Its not just him but he exemplifies and ties together everything I have been suspecting from my own research over the years, but it isnt bogus, the science he does?
