MS was deemed to be a psychiatric condition by many MD’s and shrinks for decades before a biological explanation was found. FMS and CFS are currently treated as mostly psychiatric in the UK.

New evidence published in the prestigious journal Science on October 8, 2009 clearly links CFS to a newly discovered virus called XMRV. This is explosive news, if confirmed by additional researchers, that would shatter forever the theory of CFS as psychiatric.

See:

FMS is on a symptom continuum with CFS and may well be linked to XMRV as well.

It might be advisable for you to temper your distain for FMS sufferers a bit.

Thank you for your comments. The frauds mentioned previously should be exposed for what they are. I have battled for 10+ years to regain a wisp of what I once was and could do. With reduced stamina I remain a viable useful citizen even with reduced abilities and do not waste other peoples time about my health.
