One of the ME/CFS treatments I never got around to trying was GcMAF.
A poll on Phoenix Rising showed that GcMAF treatment makes a major improvement in nearly a third of ME/CFS patients who try it (a "major improvement" was defined in that poll as moving up at least one level on the ME/CFS scale of: very severe, severe, moderate, mild, remission).
And there's one account on this forum of a severe bedbound ME/CFS patient being completely and permanently cured after 1 year taking GcMAF.
So a couple of months ago I decided to buy some GcMAF, to try it out. I opted for a transdermal cream, rather than GcMAF injections, as the cream is easier to use.
The product I bought was the GcMAF Natural Cream, from www.gcmafplus.com, a company based in Hong Kong. This product is relatively cheap: $85 for a jar of cream which provides 70 doses at 21.4 ng GcMAF per dose.
Although this is the lowest dose product they sell (stronger products are more expensive). But ME/CFS patients are often sensitive to even small doses of GcMAF, so I wanted to start with the lowest dose.
The people at GcMAFplus told me via email that their "independent tests showed upwards of 60% absorption rates" for the transdermal cream. So the potency of this cream is not far behind that of GcMAF injection.
The GcMAF product arrived in a professional-looking pump dispenser jar:
When you press down the large white button on the top of the jar, it dispenses a precise amount of cream via the hole in the center of the button, and this cream contains your 21.4 ng dose.
I started using this GcMAF cream at one pump dose daily. I had no major side effects.
However, after about a week I started noticing worsened mental health. So for the moment I've decide to reduce my dosing to once or twice a week. But in my case, I often find immunomodulators (like GcMAF) affect my already flimsy mental health. So this may not be an issue for other ME/CFS patients.
Anyway, I am writing up my initial experience with this GcMAF cream from Hong Kong, because it comes across as a professionally-made product, and the GcMAFplus website looks organized and professional too. Plus the when I contacted the company by email, I received a quick and competent reply, so their communications seem good.
Other places I considered when looking to buy GcMAF included these suppliers: GcMAF Asia • Saisei Mirai • Novel Health Sol • Bio Japan. But in the end I opted for the GcMAFplus product.
