 Abstract 
In 2006, sequences described as xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV) were discovered in prostate cancer patients. In October 2009, we published the first direct isolation of infectious XMRV from humans and the detection of infectious XMRV in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome. In that study, a combination of classic retroviral methods were used including: DNA polymerase chain reaction and reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction for gag and env, full length genomic sequencing, immunoblotting for viral protein expression in activated peripheral blood mononuclear cells, passage of infectious virus in both plasma and peripheral blood mononuclear cells to indicator cell lines, and detection of antibodies to XMRV in plasma. A combination of these methods has since allowed us to confirm infection by XMRV in 85% of the 101 patients that were originally studied. Since 2009, seven studies, predominantly using DNA polymerase chain reaction of blood products or tumor tissue, have reported failures to detect XMRV infection in patients with either prostate cancer or chronic fatigue syndrome. A review of the current literature on XMRV supports the importance of applying multiple independent techniques in order to determine the presence of this virus. Detection methods based upon the biological and molecular amplification of XMRV, which is usually present at low levels in unstimulated blood cells and plasma, are more sensitive than assays for the virus by DNA polymerase chain reaction of unstimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells. When we examined patient blood samples that had originally tested negative by DNA polymerase chain reaction by more sensitive methods, we observed that they were infected with XMRV; thus, the DNA polymerase chain reaction tests provided false negative results. Therefore, we conclude that molecular analyses using DNA from unstimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells or from whole blood are not yet sufficient as stand-alone assays for the identification of XMRV-infected individuals. Complementary methods are reviewed, that if rigorously followed, will likely show a more accurate snapshot of the actual distribution of XMRV infection in humans.

#71~ ME/CFS videos- "What's wrong with ME ? "

If YOU had been physically sick for more than 20+ years 
would YOU like to be told it was ALL IN YOUR HEAD?

I felt at this point it was time to share some the recent videos 
to help others understand Just HOW fricken LONG this has 
gone on and What a CRIME it is That Medical AUTHORITIES 
IN A NUMBER OF MAJOR COUNTRIES have tried to ignore 
this Pandemic and attribute it to a "psych" problem...

MORE Likely~ THEY have the problem of DENIAL and are 
causing a HUGE loss of Economic income to their countries 
and depleting the family resources of all of the families that 
care for the patients that have ME/CFS... 
Just listen to Dr Bell's Testimony before the CFSAC.

Many times leading to SO much frustration, NOT only for the 
families that end up in bankruptsy or divorce.. 
but ALSO the many patients that have already been 
ignored for 20+ years and abused by the medical profession 
and can SEE what this is doing to their families.. 
and that have NO hope left and end up
committing suicide.. 

In addition to those that die from related/associated life 
threatening conditions that have BEEN IGNORED because 
they had been told they were a psych patient.. 
NOT TRUE and NEVER Has BEEN !!!


YES< ALL of this has been Documented in MANY PLACES 
and SOON all of this will be made MORE accessible to the Public 
and it's will prove to be the Medical Pandemic Equivalent 
of the BP Oil Spill/Destruction of Nature  in the Gulf of Mexico, 
that has and will cost many lives (human and otherwise) 
and take YEARS/Decades to fix IF ever..just because they 
ignored some safety rules and chose to go the quick and easy way... 

Well Medical Authorities AROUND the world.. YOU ALSO 
"Will be Guilty" of Ignoring a Pandemic... 
and you HAVE been told this MANY Times.. 
so don't play innocent with us..


The PROOF is being uncovered "right now" in many 
Scientific Research Labs and soon there will be MUCH MORE 
news, besides just a Dr Oz TV show..

ALL of these patients DESERVE even BASIC medical care..
but many "after all these years" are alone, bedridden, and 
have trouble even with basic daily care..Does ANYONE CARE?
SHAME of the Governments that have caused this to happen 
to their Citizens w/o even caring enough to DO Proper Research 
and slamming them with a Hippie "Yuppie Flu" name or even 
worse sluffing them off to the psych wards.


Since a picture is worth a thousand words.. Here are some 
videos...many new or old to you.. but worth sharing if you 
haven't seen them or wish to "share them with others you 
WISH to educate." 
PLEASE Turn your Volume UP.... and RePlay if Necessary.


God BLESS ALL of YOU that are Choosing to Help us...

Please REMEMBER that in the "Rest of the world"
"What the USA calls CFS~ is called ME",
which is VERY different from plain
chronic fatigue.
This video basically explains ALL of the same symptoms
that "REAL ME/CFS patients in the USA HAVE" !!!
Those that are "simply fatigued" or "depressed"
will NOT have MOST of these symptoms. Period.




The following are the 2 Movie Trailers  created "so far"
that will be a Documentary about this whole FIASO.


What About Me? Trailer - UK from Double D Productions on Vimeo.


What About Me? Trailer - USA from Double D Productions on Vimeo.

We THANK Double_D Productions with ALL our Hearts and 
LOOK forward to seeing the completed film. 
They just returned from the Cannes Film Festival, so this 
is NO JOKE folks... Thankfully and About TIME !!!


I will leave you with a few that will tug at your hearts
so you can SEE and HEAR the Reality of this illness.



For dear Sophia, in the words of her mother..
PLEASE UP Volume and LISTEN thru her accent.



Dr Donnica Moore explains in more detail about what
XMRV 
can do and WHY it is SO IMPORTANT and JUST the beginning.



This was a BIG accomplishment for us to get Dr Oz to 
do 
an actual SHOW (re-DO from a show a few weeks B4 that 
was ONLY about chronic fatigue NOT CFS...
AND TRUST ME, he got a LOT of Flack for that comment about exercise because he DOES NOT 
TRULY understand the extent of Relapse after exertion.


There is even a lab strictly set up for studying this 
that is part of the University of the Pacific, Stockton, CA. called The Pacific Fatigue Lab and here is there link
http://web.pacific.edu/x31814.xml
Their Head (Dr. Snell) is NOW the Current Chair of the  CFSAC 
(Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Advisory Committee)
that reports to the Sec. of Heath on Pres. Obama's cabinet.

XMRV "very well MAY' also prove to be the link for atypical MS,
Autism, Fibromyalgia, Lupus, Lyme Disease, Multiple Chemical Sensitiviy,
and how many more... we don't know YET... 
We DO KNOW that is IS found in men with Prostrate Cancer and 
HAS shown up in some patients with Lymphoma.

Please Help the ONE place that is currently already doing the Research along with other facilities to get us help...
The Whittemore Peterson Institute, Reno, NV.
 http://wpinstitute.org a 501C3 


YES, we ARE being/have been abused and it DOES KILL...
It "could" be your son or daughter next...
WILL you Help?

Bless you for Reading and watching THIS far..
Many more NEED to be Educated about this..
We have already been informing the blood banks
of the World and working with them to screen for this 
just like they were made to for HIV...


YES, we ARE fighting with not only City Hall, but many governmental
agencies around the World to Educate the public
for the health and safety of the WORLD.


Bless you and PLEASE Share this info, even if you
can't afford to donate or help in any way.. 
Every "tiny bit' of help is IMPORTANT ♥♥♥


Please leave us comments and let us know IF or How
any of these diseases has touched your life yet...


We ARE a World Family now working together for 
our Health and Well being.. Health effects EVERY
ASPECT of your Quality of Life...



May  you help NOW before someone you KNOW
is hit by this terrible life-altering illness...

#27~ XMRV Interim Guidelines from the NCI



Interim XMRV Guidelines from 
National Cancer Institute


Following the Oct. 8 publication by
Lombardi et al in Science linking CFS 
and xenotropic murine retrovirus (XMRV),
the CFIDS Association of America 
requested guidance from the National
Cancer Institute about XMRV for persons
diagnosed with CFS, their loved ones
and the general public. 

The following are interim guidelines
excerpted from a letter received from 
NCI director 
Dr. John E. Niederhuber.


Interim XMRV Guidelines from 
National Cancer Institute


We at the National Cancer Institute
(NCI) have great interest in these initial 
research findings. At present, we agree 
that a critical issue to be addressed is 
whether the exciting recent results 
obtained using samples from the Nevada
cohort can be reproduced in additional
cohorts of CFS-afflicted individuals.

The NCI is striving to develop tools so 
that the general prevalence of XMRV in 
the population can be ascertained, and
the association of  XMRV with disease
can be examined.


In the meantime, it is very important to 
reiterate what we do not know at this 
point, specifically:


1. We do not know whether XMRV is a 
causative agent for CFS, prostate cancer, 
or any other disease. Even if a causal 
association can be established, it may be
only one of many causes, and there may 
be other factors, genetic or 
environmental, that determine the 
outcome of infection. At the moment, 
there is no evidence of CFS
transmission between family members, 
even though XMRV appears to be an 
infectious agent. Thus, it is unclear 
whether XMRV alone underlies CFS.


2. We do not know how XMRV is 
transmitted from individual to individual. 
Recent suggestions of sexual or salivary 
transmission are not based on direct 
evidence, and conclusions regarding 
transmission are not credible at this 
point. Given the frequent isolation of 
virus from white blood cells, 
blood-borne transmission is a real 
possibility, and, while we are not in a 
position to establish firm guidelines, 
prudence would dictate that potentially
infected individuals refrain from
blood donation at this time.


3. We do not know how many apparently
healthy individuals are infected, and 
what the distribution of infection is 
within the U.S. and
in the worldwide population. 

The National Cancer Institute is involved in
coordinating a global effort to study 
these issues.


It is very important to keep in mind that
there is no evidence for a new increasing
or  spreading XMRV infection. 

Further, no credible evidence exists for 
direct transmission of either CFS 
or prostate cancer.

Note: According to Dr. Wanda Jones 
of DHHS, these issues will be discussed 
by representatives from DHHS, NIH and 
other federal health agencies at the 
upcoming  federal CFS Advisory 
Committee meeting
on Oct. 29-30, in Wash DC.


THAT's the meeting BELOW  I have been
asking your to turn your computers ON
to watch or at least RUN and then watch
the arcived reply later..but we need the 
"head count" by the NIH.....Thx
