RYC: Yeah I've heard about breakthroughs too - I just completed a medical degree (which means I'm technically a doctor now!) and in my studies I learned that the syndrome could be caused by a reaction to the initial virus - the body fights it off and it goes away, but then the body gets confused and continues attacking cells that it thinks are the virus, but are actually just harmless cells in your body - like an autoimmune condition. Interesting stuff, and definitely lends itself to potential treatments.
