Could a primitive parasitic, pathogenic microorganism capable of growing in living tissue cell structures without killing the cells be responsible for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and some other chronic conditions?
Mycoplasma, which refers to any parasitic, pathogenic microorganism of the genus Mycoplasma, could be the culprit. Mycoplasma lack a true cell wall, are gram-negative, and need sterols such as cholesterol for growth.

Not only are we sick and tired, we are often left or forced by our symptoms to remain at home alone. Studies done by Carnegie Mellon University and the American Heart Association concluded that social isolation and loneliness can impair the immune system. Conversely, a social support system may actually strengthen the immune system.
