Hi everyone,
I'm new on this forum and have a question about antiviral treatment options.
I live in the Denver area and flew to Michigan to see Dr. Lerner. He recommended treatments of intravenous Cidovir or oral Valcyte. However, I would need to go to his clinic every two weeks for the Cidovir. It would be very difficult for me to make a series of trips across the country, so I'm hoping to find a doctor in Colorado to prescribe antivirals.
Here's where I'm confused: is Valcyte for CFS something that a general practitioner can prescribe or would I need to seek out a specialist? I've tried looking online for CFS specialists in Colorado and have only found alternative practitioners (e.g. nutritional, herbalists etc.), so any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
Sarah
