When my kids catch a cold/flu, I will get it 4-5 days later. Without exception. and I will be as sick as a dog, for exactly three weeks. Then enjoy 1-2 "good weeks" and then get sick again. Sure, it's all part of being a parent, but no other parent I know get as many infections as me.
Even though I tested negative for a couple of viruses and bugs (lyme, EBV and mycoplasma etc) when I got my ME/CFS diagnosis, I have strong reasons to believe that I do have chronic/hidden viruses that cause me problems.
I have been taking LDN for the past 4 months, (up to 3mg/day) and have some improvemnt in energy/stamina, I think, however, still very much prone to infections.Thanks!!![/QUOTE]

Hi Moshi,
You are describing the story of my life exactly.....
I have just the same worthless immune response and catch every living inlfuenza or cold virus on earth. I didnt used to be that way when i was 28 years old and healthy, would only catch one cold per year. Finally after getting a much deeper understanding of this chronic fatigue [ Chronic Infection Syndrome] disease i realised that the only way out is to turbocharge the immune system and keep it that way even when i feel 90%: You see, when we get infected with a cold or flu virus, it becomes party time for our EBV, HHV-6, and CMV viral indfections, which are now released from the " bottle" that the immune system forced them into......
1- Taking Epicor two capsules daily......feels good so far but too early to make a long trem judgement.
2- Take 2 tablespoons of Colustrom, works well and really helps my hair....but can only eat it mixed with Ice Cream...ha,ha. tastes great that way...
3- Purchased AHCC from immunepower, should work well as i took it five years ago and it gave good results. Problem with these is the high expense only 60 capsules for USD 35.000...and please dont waste time taking the prescribed 2 capsules daily,you will need 4 to 5 daily for CFS patients, with weekend off as a cycle.
4- .Purchased Inosine [ same as Immunivir} based upon excellent reviews,plan to add it to my supplements after two weeks.
5- Purchased Immunopro deneatured whey protein....have not tried it yet but it seems less powerfull than Colustrom, so dont expect much from it, but its worth a test.
6- I am now taking Bee Propolis due to its wel lknown antiviral and anticancer properties. Take 5 x 500 mg capsules daily with a meal. I like the results. Very low priced.
7- Not a powerfull anti-viral supplement but its helpful: Purchased aged Garlic Tablets 500 mg from Now Foods,these are great for energy and antiviral,but you need to take 6 daily minimum with the main meal, to get high energy effect.
8- Take herbal antiparasite capsules such as Parastroy.
My goal is not to control this disease but to cure it, nothing less. I am getting much closer thank god..
Good Luck in getting well.
