Hi George,
Thanks, George, that's really interesting. :Retro smile: I'm no biologist, but it makes sense .....could it be true? I wonder how many other folk feel better when they have an infection....apart from the lurgy lurking within.
My question to Gerwyn earlier - and I don't know if you have any comments, George - is how come many of us do not develop cold symptoms after we have ME (can't bring myself to use the name CFS)?

I find I get a heavy duty infection - although I can't run a decent fever anymore - but haven't developed a minor bug such as a cold, since I became ill. Have you any theories, George? I'm puzzled because Kurt wrote, quoting a paper, that our NK cells are 60% down. (This is the third time I've posted this question today.

Is becoming obsessional part of the picture? :innocent1
Gotta go, the neighbour's cat is howling on my stairs.
