Has anyone been able to find an interferon suppository outlet (usually russian as well) that accepts pay pal?
Shit now i'm even going off topic.
This thread is about one thing. Arbidol. It's effects on pathogens ability to use IL-10 through B cells that keep viruses operational are simply amazing. And Arbidiol is the only observed substance to break this. I've been taking 3 weeks. Mind, I didn't have high CVB titers just CVA
@Hip What sites give the best BTC discount?
We have paused both the IVIG and the Arbidol to wait for the flare up of symptoms to lower. As has happened every time she has used an anti-virals in the past all of her symptoms flare up. This time I think it is worse because of the IVIG which has stimulated her immune system and given her an even greater response. She has always been a "high inflammation" patient and the IVIG has made it worse.
We got to 25mg. per day before pausing, we'll wait a few days and resume.
This is no fun... one month in on 100mg per day of Arbidol and still fighting the IRIS reaction- increased nausea, fevers, body aches, brain fog etc. This is not a traditional herx reaction so the antihistamine or detoxing protocols do nothing, this is her immune system reacting to either the now exposed CVB4 or to other viral infections. We have seen some decrease in the abdominal distention or swelling, not all of the time and not completely but a decrease none the less.
This is not our first time on anti virals- we've done Equilibrant, Famvir, Epivir, an ethanol extract of Woodfordia fruticosa (EWF) w/ injections of GCMAF and several other herbal anti virals. Every one of them has created the same IRIS reaction, we went at least 90 days on each to test the effectiveness.

Just because it shows anti viral properties to CVB4 does not mean that a compound will be effective against the "persistent" intra- cellular infection we're dealing with.
