The
Virus Within: A Coming Epidemic
How Medical Detectives are Tracking a Terrifying Virus
that Hides in Almost All of Us

Charts the involvement
of HHV6a virus in CFS patients and AIDS patients.
Scientific research consistently finds that CFS closely
resembles a viral illness. This
book is not for the faint-hearted.

Living
with ME - chronic post viral fatigue syndrome
By Dr.
Charles Shepherd
Rating:
7 / 10
This is a good and reference manual for patients. It is
now out-dated by
recent research findings, new drugs, greater diagnostic
precision, and successful CFS patient recoveries in the
USA. We would welcome an updated version of this book to
take all of these new developments into account.

Good book. Focuses on CFS
management. Now out-dated by recent research findings, new

Rating:
8 / 10
A great book. It outlines the history of the illness and
it's devastating effect on ordinary working people and
communities in the USA. It gives one a good insight into
the early days of CFS research and the sheer complexity of
this illness which baffled leading scientific researchers.
Mostly, it shows the great human suffering endured by
patients and their loved ones.
