Famvir also ebv, but theres enough personal experiences on PR that has shown people with cmv and hhv6 can improve on famvir, maybe dose related??
Valcyte is the one for cmv and hhv6. sometimes one can improve with just famvir and then squeeze abit more improvement out of valcyte. Length of valcyte treatment still isnt known, but i think a 6 month minimum and then go back to another antiviral like famvir to help keep cmv/hhv6 down??.
I have been on Famvir for a few months (sorry can't dig out how long now). Upping my dose to 1000 mgs/day has helped with what I and my NP believe is a reactivation of, at the very least my EBV and probably CMV. Since being on it I have not had a Herpes 2 outbreak.
I also had noticeable results with Acyclovir and my Herpes and EBV . Since I can't take Valtrex without becoming enraged, this is working in conjunction with Immune modulators.
But like @heapsreal said, I still feel like crap, but less crap.
