Chronic fatigue syndrome and OSA has been strongly clenched.

Now there's a whole new investigation, which considers that a virus is the cause.

http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/13/health/13fatigue.html?_r=2&pa...

Personally, I see it as a very interesting study. If further studies prove this is correct, it would certainly be one of the greatest discoveries in decades.

If not, it is as with the tomatoes. It is dangerous to eat tomatoes. Nearly all who die have eaten
tomatoes. (in fact I like tomatoes).

i agree this is a fascinating and very important study. i have heard murmurs before about this possibility. what have you heard are the links between OSA and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome?
There are numerous of studies that indicate a link between OSA and CSF and Fibromyalgia.

If I remember correctly, Dr. Park had a tele seminar with Dr. Teitelbaum.

I found an excerpt from his book "From Fatigued to Fantastic".

If you read this, especially from page 68, you will see that he sees a link between OSA and CSF and Fibromyalgia.

This “new” virus is also linked with Fibromyalgia.

If you read at page 69 you can read that UARS often is misdiagnosed as CSF and Fibromyalgia.

I had a little trouble inserting the very long link, but it seems to work.

If it turns out that this "new" virus is the cause of both Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia it will means that we must change the perception of these disorders also in terms of OSA.
