I get Medscape emails for my professional area. This one contained a link for a poll on whether antiretrovirals should be prescribed for Chronic Fatigue. The link will work with member code.
Be good to keep track of this one over the next couple days, although the results are not surprising

Recent research suggests that the retrovirus XMRV may be one of the causes of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). Some physicians have been prescribing antiretroviral therapy to patients with CFS in an attempt to combat retrovirus infection, even though a causal relationship has not definitively been shown. What do you think of such prescribing?
*
*A. Prescribing antiretroviral therapy is premature
*64% *(184)
*
*
*B. Antiretroviral therapy should be prescribed because patients with CFS have few other options
*18% *(52)
*
*
*C. Uncertain
*16% *(48)
